Amid this, Jos Buttler set to become T20 cricket's highest run-scorer.

The experienced opening batter's injury comes as a big blow to MI London's campaign at a crucial stage of the ongoing Women's Hundred 2026. However, MI London was quick to name Danni Wyatt's replacement for the remainder of the 100-ball tournament in England.

Danni Wyatt ruled out of The Hundred 2026

There are not many details available on how Danni Wyatt suffered the calf injury, but the impact was enough to force her to miss the rest of the ongoing Women's Hundred 2026 at home. Before the tournament, Danni was on fire in the recent ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2026.

Ella Claridge has been named as Wyatt's replacement for the rest of the ongoing Women's Hundred 2026. Claridge is the young all-rounder from the USA who has experience of 16 white-ball matches in international women's cricket. She has the big job of filling the shoes of a proven match-winner in Wyatt.

Danni Wyatt featured in only three matches for MI London before the injury ruled her out of the Hundred 2026. However, the England star was not at her best, as she could manage only 93 runs in three games. She began her campaign with a knock of 29 runs from 20 balls against Sunrisers Hyderabad.

Danni Wyatt then played a quick cameo of 12 runs against the Manchester Originals, followed by her brilliant unbeaten 52 from 42 balls against the Southern Brave. These numbers are in contrast to her heroics at the T20 World Cup 2026, where she amassed over 300 runs and won the Player of the Tournament award.

Who is Ella Claridge?

Meanwhile, Ella Claridge now has a golden opportunity to make a big impact in one of the world's biggest women's T20 competitions. Claridge is a right-handed batter and wicketkeeper who represents the United States in international cricket.

She has also built a strong reputation in England's domestic cricket with consistent performances across different competitions. The 24-year-old has made her mark with The Blaze and was part of the side that won the 2024 Charlotte Edwards Cup and later signed a new multi-year contract with them.

Before joining MI London for the ongoing season, Claridge was part of Trent Rockets in 2022 and 2025 and was also picked by Northern Superchargers in the 2024 season. Earlier, she even represented Buckinghamshire Women and Worcestershire Women in county cricket. Amid this, Jude Bellingham meets Pakistan cricketers Usman Tariq and Fatima Sana in The Hundred.

MI London Women in trouble at Women's Hundred 2026

On the other hand, MI London Women have had a disappointing start to their Women's Hundred 2026 campaign. The defending champions are yet to win a match this season and are currently placed at the bottom of the points table with just two points and a poor net run rate of -1.379 after playing four matches so far.

They have managed only one tied game and suffered three defeats. The team will now be desperate to turn things around in the remaining matches in the ongoing 100-ball tournament.
