India, April 18 -- Kevin Pietersen rejected Lalit Modi's prediction that The Hundred would become a T20 competition in the future. In an interview with Overlap Cricket, the IPL founder questioned the long-term survival of The Hundred, England's 100-ball franchise cricket competition. Modi predicted that the tournament had structural and commercial limitations and would die in three years.

Modi also criticised the lack of marketing and promotion for the tournament and revealed that the tournament is not making any money either. He also slammed the tournament's format, noting that the 100-ball structure makes it unrelatable to fans.

Taking to X, Pietersen stated, "The Hundred won't die in 3yrs, it'll be a T20 comp within 3yrs."
