Women's T20 World Cup Prize Money: The International Cricket Council (ICC) took a big decision on Tuesday. The ICC has made women's cricket equal to men's cricket. After the new decision of the ICC, women will get the same amount of money as men in ICC events. In this way, the ICC has equalized the prize money for men's and women's cricket. It will start with the Women's T20 World Cup 2024. Women's T20 World Cup 2024 will be the first tournament in which women will get the same prize money as the men's team.

Now the team that wins the Women's T20 World Cup will become rich

It is believed that this decision of the ICC will prove to be an example for cricket. This decision was taken in the ICC's annual conference in July 2023. At that time, the ICC's goal was that in the next few years, women and men cricketers would get equal prize money. Now the ICC has achieved its goal. The winning team in the Women's T20 World Cup to be held in the United Arab Emirates will get US $ 2.34 million, the ICC announced. This amount is around Rs 20 crore in Indian rupees.

How much money will the runner up get?

Earlier last year, the Women's T20 World Cup was played in South Africa. Australia won this World Cup. At that time, Australia got 1 million dollars for winning the World Cup, which is about 8 crores in Indian rupees, but now it has been increased by 134 percent. The runner-up team of the Women's T20 World Cup will get 1.17 million dollars, which is 134 percent more than the amount received by the previous runner-up.
