The Hundred is a fast-paced and exciting format of cricket that has taken the world by storm. In this format, each team consists of only 100 balls per inning, making it a high-intensity game with quick and entertaining performances. While batting may be the main focus, there have been some incredible bowling spells in The Hundred matches that have left fans on the edge of their seats. These spells have not only secured crucial victories for their teams but have also become some of the most memorable moments in the history of The Hundred.
One such spell came from Jofra Archer in the inaugural season of The Hundred. Representing Southern Brave, Archer took three wickets in his first over, including the prized wicket of Jos Buttler, to set the tone for a dominant victory against Manchester Originals. His accurate and lethal bowling combined with his aggressive attitude made for an unforgettable spell that showed why he is one of the best bowlers in the world.
In another match, Sarah Glenn of Trent Rockets put on a show with her bowling spell against Northern Superchargers. The young leg-spinner took four wickets in just nine balls, including a hat-trick, to lead her team to a convincing win. Her remarkable control over the spin and her variations left the opposition batsmen struggling to score runs, making it a spell that will be remembered for years to come.
