Smriti Mandhana (Manchester Super Giants)

India’s star player Smriti Mandhana returns to The Hundred after missing the previous season. She will play for Manchester Super Giants Women after being pre-signed for £90,000.

This will be Mandhana's fifth season in The Hundred and her second franchise in the tournament. She represented Southern Brave from 2021 to 2024 and enjoyed plenty of success during that period.

Overall, she has played 29 matches in the competition, scoring 676 runs at an average of 26.00 with a strike rate of 139.09. Her best season came in 2023, when she scored 238 runs in nine innings at an average of 29.75 and a strike rate of 133.70.

Rodrigues made an impressive start to her Hundred career in 2021. She made 249 runs at an average of 41.50 while maintaining a strike rate of 150.90. However, she has found it difficult to match those performances in the following years.

Her performances in the tournament have been below expectations so far. She scored 107 runs from six innings during the 2023 season and followed it up with 62 runs from four innings in 2024.

Deepti Sharma (Sunrisers Leeds)

India all-rounder Deepti Sharma will represent Sunrisers Leeds in The Hundred 2026, marking her return to the competition after missing the last year. This will be her third season in the tournament after featuring in 2021 and 2024.

Deepti enjoyed an outstanding campaign in 2024; she scored 212 runs at an incredible average of 212, while also claiming eight wickets with an economy rate of 8.65.
