The Hundred: Men's and women's retained lists for the 2023 season

On Thursday, Hundred teams confirmed their retained list ahead of the draft on March 23 and Welsh Fire kept hold of Bairstow, Stokes will remain with Northern Superchargers and Archer is still part of the Southern Brave.

Across both competitions, 113 players have been retained overall, meaning there are still 135 spots to fill at The Hundred Draft on March 23.

The trio missed last year’s edition with Stokes and Bairstow citing their heavy workload following a packed summer of Test cricket while Archer was on his way back from a long-standing elbow issue.

England batter Sophia Dunkley will be up for grabs in the first women’s draft after Southern Brave opted to let her move on, with Danni Wyatt and Kate Cross also involved in the draft where Tammy Beaumont’s Welsh Fire will have first pick.

India’s Smriti Mandhana, who fetched around £340,000 in the WPL auction, will represent Southern Brave again later this year with Ellyse Perry to play for Birmingham Phoenix.

Overseas stars Rashid Khan and Glenn Maxwell have been retained by men’s champions Trent Rockets and London Spirit respectively with Jos Buttler also set to be part of the Manchester Originals squad.

Moeen Ali’s Birmingham Phoenix finished runners-up in 2022 and have kept the bulk of their group from last year.

Teams in the men’s competition were able to retain 10 players while the women’s franchises could keep four of their 2022 group.

Welsh Fire men, under the leadership of Australian Mike Hussey, have eight spaces to fill at next month’s draft.

The list for the draft will be announced on February 28 with teams in the men’s competition able to make two wildcard selections.
