Sunrisers Leeds begin the new era of The Hundred with a seven-wicket win over MI London at The Kia Oval. Multiple reports say the match opens the competition for the 2026 women’s Hundred, following changes to the teams’ identities after overseas investment. BBC and other outlets highlight Phoebe Litchfield’s innings of 43, made off 26 balls, as she top-scores and steers Sunrisers to a comfortable chase. Sky News and Sky Sports also describe Sunrisers as thrashing MI London, reporting the result as a dominant seven-wicket victory. Sky’s report adds detail about an injury scare involving Cross during the match, though other sources focus mainly on the outcome and Litchfield’s batting. One provided outlet (Yahoo Sports) repeats the same core details—Litchfield’s 43 off 26 and the seven-wicket win—while the Sky Sports cricket headline frames the same match as a strong Sunrisers performance. Overall, sources are aligned on the result, the key scorer, and the opening-match setting at The Kia Oval.
