The inaugural auction for the Women's Hundred on March 11, 2026, in London resulted in several players securing contracts exceeding £100,000, marking a significant rise in salaries for women's cricket in the UK. English talents Danielle Gibson, Issy Wong, and Tilly Corteen-Coleman were among the top buys, while overseas stars Beth Mooney and Sophie Devine fetched the highest fees of £210,000 each. This shift from the previous draft system follows substantial investments in the competition's franchises.
