The 2025 season was the Oval Invincibles' 5th season of the 100-ball franchise cricket tournament, The Hundred.[1][2] The men's team were victorious for the third consecutive year, following on from the women's team winning the first two editions of their tournament.
Earlier in the year, it was announced that the England and Wales Cricket Board's 49% stake in the franchise had been sold to Reliance Industries Limited (RIL), the owners of the Indian Premier League's Mumbai Indians.
During the season, reports suggested that 2025 would be the team's last season as the Invincibles, before they were to be rebranded as MI London, in keeping with RIL's other overseas franchises.[3]
Men's side
The Invincibles men's squad retained eleven players from the previous season:
- Sam Curran (central contract)
- Tom Curran (£200k)
- Will Jacks (£200k)
- Jordan Cox (£120k)
- Rashid Khan (£120k)
- Sam Billings (£78.5k)
- Saqib Mahmood (£78.5k)
- Gus Atkinson (£63k)
- Nathan Sowter (£52k)
- Donovan Ferreira (£52k)
- Tawanda Muyeye (£41.5k)
In the draft, they picked up Surrey all-rounder Jordan Clark (£41.5k), Gloucestershire batter Miles Hammond (£31k) and their third overseas player, Australian paceman Jason Behrendorff (£63.5k). Adam Zampa returned to the side for the third consecutive season when he replaced Rashid Khan for the final.[4]
George Scrimshaw and Zafar Gohar (both £31k) were selected as wildcard picks.
