Kavya Maran: Kavya Maran, owner of Sunrisers Hyderabad franchise in IPL, has changed the name of her team. However, the team he has changed is not Sunrisers Hyderabad of the IPL, but Northern Superchargers of The Hundred League. Kavya Maran has now changed the name of her team playing in The Hundred to Sunrisers Leeds. There have already been reports of Northern Superchargers changing their name ahead of The Hundred season starting in 2026.
Chennai-based Sun Group, which had acquired Northern Superchargers earlier this year for Rs 1,155 crore, has decided to sell its 51% stake in Yorkshire Superchargers. Sun Group, which owns 49% of ECB, now owns 100% of the company. Northern Superchargers is a franchise from Leeds, so its new name includes the name Leeds as well as Kavya Maran’s trademark Sunrisers.
Kavya Maran’s Sun Group has applied for a new name at Companies House in Leeds. This means that the name Superchargers has been removed for now. Kavya Maran’s team has been named Sunrisers Leeds, which is like Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL and Sunrisers Eastern Cape in South Africa 20.
Northern Superchargers are the third team among the eight teams playing in The Hundred to change their name. Similarly, Manchester Originals have been renamed Manchester Supergiants. Oval Invincibles has been renamed Mumbai Indians London.
