Summary
It's time for The Hundred! Alex Hartley and Kate Cross preview the tournament, which begins this week.
Kate tells us about her excitement at joining up again with the Northern Superchargers and Alex has a new role for this year's competition.
The pair look at who the key players for each side could be, and who the main contenders for the women and men's titles are.
And we're joined by New Zealand international Lauren Down following the white-ball series against England. Lauren gives a fascinating insight into returning to international cricket just months after having her first child.
