ECB chair Richard Thompson has claimed that the board's premier cricket tournament, The Hundred is worth 'a lot more' than £400m in response to Bridgepoint Group’s offer. Earlier, Bridgepoint Group, a London-listed buyout firm, had offered to acquire a 75% stake in the competition for a price of £400m. However, the recently appointed chair of the ECB, Thompson believes that the price was rather ‘exaggerated’.
