Chris Woakes and Jamie Smith have secured the last two deals in The Hundred in the England Central Contract Draft.
All-rounder Woakes has joined Welsh Fire, while wicketkeeper-batter Smith has moved to London Spirit.
Woakes and Smith were contracted to Birmingham Phoenix for the 2024 edition of The Hundred.
England’s remaining red-ball and white-ball men’s players with central contract points have two additional routes to secure a contract – The Hundred Draft and The Hundred Wildcard Draft.
The Draft takes place on March 12, with a final chance to make squad additions coming at May’s Wildcard Draft, where teams can add two final men’s and women’s players, rewarding stand-out performers in domestic cricket.
The Hundred returns on August 5 at Lord’s with a London derby men’s and women’s double-header between London Spirit and defending champions Oval Invincibles.

How do matches work?
- One hundred balls a side, the team with the most runs wins. It is as simple as that.
- Five bowlers can bowl up to 20 balls in an innings, including five or 10 in a row.
- The traditional six-ball overs seen in other forms of cricket are not used in The Hundred, with 10 balls bowled before a change of ends.
- The powerplay is for the first 25 balls of an innings, with only two fielders allowed outside the 30-yard circle.
- A 25-ball-a-side game is the minimum length that can be played in the event of wet weather.
- If a match in the knockout stages is tied, a Super 5 will be played, with the winner being the team scoring the most runs from a further five balls each.
