The Hundred opens retention window for 2027 season until January 15
The Hundred retention window for the 2027 season opened on October 19 and runs until January 15.
The Hundred retention window for the 2027 season opened on October 19 and will remain active until January 15, 2027. Franchises in both men's and women's competitions can confirm which players they wish to retain.
Each squad may retain a maximum of 16 players on their existing 2026 salaries. Players signed at the 2026 auction, replacement players who appeared in at least two matches, and those selected through the Vitality Wildcard Draft are all eligible.
After the window closes, teams may make up to four direct signings between January 20 and February 3, 2027, before the main auction in early March.
CricHubb Take
Allowing injured players from 2026 to be retained protects squads from losing talent to misfortune while keeping salary structures stable across seasons.
