"Rs 45 Lakh Per Match To Players": BCCI's Big Step To Promote Test Cricket, Allocates Rs 40 Crore
Following India's thumping series win over England, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Jay Shah on Saturday announced the 'Test Cricket Incentive Scheme' for the senior men's team, which will give players extra incentive over and above the usual match fees for taking part in the longest format of the game. Shah took to X (formerly Twitter) to announce that the incentive would serve as an "additional reward structure" on top of existing match fees of Rs 15 lakhs for players. The move will provide "financial growth" and "stability" to players who participate keenly in the most revered format of the sport.
