James Anderson and Rocky Flintoff to play in the Hundred this summer
Anderson turns 43 before the tournament begins next month and will play for Manchester Originals, meaning the Lancashire veteran will continue to ply his trade at Old Trafford. England's record Test wicket-taker was loosely attached to the Originals when the competition first launched in 2021 and will finally make his bow in the fifth edition, having originally gone unsold in the draft. He has never played any form of franchise cricket before, having also failed to win an Indian Premier League deal following his international retirement. From the James Anderson end…. Sir James Anderson joins Manchester Originals for The Hundred 2025! 🤩 — The Hundred (@thehundred) July 15, 2025 'I'm really looking forward to The Hundred and I'm really happy to be part of the Manchester Originals squad,' he said. 'I've loved my time with Lancashire this season, so I'm excited to have the opportunity to add value in the Hundred. 'It's a competition I've really enjoyed watching. When you're at the games you can really see that it does attract a slightly different crowd, a lot of younger people and families, and you can't underestimate how important that is for our game. I can't wait to get out there.' At the other end of the age spectrum, 17-year-old Flintoff will be making it a family affair at Headingley. He has never played a professional T20 but recently hit a fine century for England Under-19s against India this month and has impressed for England Lions, who are also coached by his famous father. Australian Hilton Cartwright is the only overseas player among the 32 wildcard signings, stepping in for Faf du Plessis at Southern Brave following the former South Africa captain's injury withdrawal. Jason Roy, a World Cup winner with England in 2019, takes up the vacancy in the Brave squad. Scotland internationals Katherine Fraser and Darcey Carer are among the new recruits in the women's tournament, linking up with the Superchargers and Originals respectively.

Yet the controversial MAFS alum - who faced allegations of bullying and was at the centre of a series of spats during his time on the show - attempted to make light of his mystery condition in the caption. He wrote: "Turns out there's no cure for narcissicsm. "Sorry guys." His medical condition is currently unclear. The worrying news comes just months after Harrison announced his engagement to girlfriend Gina Ha, who he has been dating for just over a year. MAFS CHAOS It was an unhappier time for Harrison on the reality TV series. He was swiftly hailed a show villain for allegedly gaslighting his wife. Harrison first caused a stir when he upset bride Bronte on their wedding day. One of her bridesmaids told her that Harrison had been dating a girl in the lead up to the wedding, and wanted to be with her when he finished the show. MAFS Australia star reveals she's back with her ex While Bronte gave him the benefit of the doubt, she later slept with him on honeymoon, only for him to remark that there was "no chemistry" between them. Later in the series, Harrison was accused of 'bullying' for the way he spoke about the other couples during the commitment ceremonies. When Evelyn challenged him, they exchanged a war of words, prompting Melinda to jump in with: "You're just a rude guy! It's bullying. It's attacking everyone here.' Mafs couples that have stood the test of time Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby.

Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau. Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December. Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: 'I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out - and excited for everything to come.' Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019. Owen recalled: 'I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work. "While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in. 'The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, 'Wouldn't it be funny if I signed up?' 'A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.' Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson. Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna's vegan lifestyle, the show's first same sex pairing are still going strong. They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod. Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: "We're not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship." But Harrison was having none of it, firing back: "'It's not bullying. Don't play the sex card, grow up!". Needless to say, he and Bronte didn't go the distance and split before final vows. 'Harrison, we're done, we're over and I honestly never want to see you again," Bronte shouted at him when they split during the final dinner party. After the series aired, Harrison hit out amid the fan backlash. He said: "The network hid 90 per cent of Bronte's behaviour, so imagine how bad she must have been what they didn't show, in order for her to look equally as bad as me, when I'm just reacting to it." 6 It came just months after he revealed his engagement Credit: Instagram / harrison_boon_ 6 He popped the question to Gina Ha in October Credit: Instagram / harrison_boon_
