The Hundred, Women: MI London vs Manchester Super Giants

Platform comparison

Market context

Polymarket prices this contract at **0% YES** on Polygon in USDC-backed conditional tokens, which is an effective way of saying the market sees MI London Women as having no live path to the published result. That reading is consistent with the match record now showing Manchester Super Giants Women have already beaten MI London Women at the Kia Oval, with ESPN listing the hosts dismissed for 92 and Manchester Super Giants winning with 28 balls to spare.[2][3]

For traders, the main historical frame is that this pairing has generally produced clear outcomes rather than marginal finishes: ESPN’s head-to-head log shows MI London had won the previous meetings in 2021, 2022 and 2024, but the 2026 match report flips that recent pattern with a comfortable Manchester Super Giants chase.[11][2] The crowd-implied zero therefore looks less like a view on team strength and more like a settlement view anchored to the completed scorecard and the tournament’s published result feed, which matters because Polymarket resolves on the final match result as published by ESPN Cricinfo.[2]

The practical catalysts now are not pre-match line-ups but confirmation risk: any late correction to the official scorecard, a rain-affected abandonment, or a record update on ESPN would be the only plausible drivers of a change in settlement mechanics under the market rules.[2][3] In cricket markets, the finishing state is decisive, and here the live-to-final transition has already been made with a declared winner, so conditional tokens on Polygon should continue to reflect the settled outcome rather than in-play uncertainty.[2][3]

Methodology

Methodologically we separate two layers: the live probability (Polymarket mid-price) and the platform attributes (fee, KYC, settlement currency, payment rails). That keeps the comparison honest — a single canonical probability across the row, with the venue-by-venue trade-offs spelt out in the columns next to it.

Resolution & payout

Polymarket-based markets settle through the UMA Optimistic Oracle on Polygon. A proposer submits the outcome, a two-hour challenge window opens, and unchallenged proposals finalise the resolution. Payouts settle automatically in USDC the moment the result is final — no bookmaker, no delay.

Kalshi-based markets settle in USD via the CFTC-regulated clearinghouse. Betfair Exchange settles in GBP/EUR net of commission. Manifold is play-money and does not pay out real funds.
