The Hundred is being streamed live on Sky Sports and you can watch live matches, replays and highlights here. A smaller number of games will be shown on the BBC.

If you do not have any subscription set up you have two options. You can buy Sky Sports but it means you will also have to sign up for Sky TV. The good news is you also get Netflix as part of the £42 per month package.

If you already have Sky but you do not have access to the Sports channels you will need to add them here. You can do that for £22 for month and it includes all nine sports channels.

For those who do not want to make the commitment to a 24-month contract you can still access Sky Sport via the NowTV monthly pass for £34.99.

Sky is also streaming a small number of games free on its website. You can check if the game you want to watch is being live streamed free here.

The Hundred is a franchise cricket tournament played in England. The fast-paced 100-ball competition is the equivalent of the popular domestic competitions such as the IPL in India. The tournament is made up of franchises from across the UK, who compete in August to be named national champion.

There are men's and women's tournaments and often games will take place as double-headers.
