BCCI announces INR 125 crore($15mn) prize money for Team India

[MP2011]

@MP2011 what’s ur reaction?

As I told you earlier, I'm no stooge of anyone This is also poor, very poor. Just because there is an opposition government in Telangana, I won't endorse this.

Here.. Any Indian government that gives money to the cricketers for WC win are idiots and it’s pathetic.

Now this goes for all future governments that will as well.

Andhbhakt won't get this though, he'll still parrot what his masters say.

I thought Revanth Reddy was no nonsense politico. Obviously, I was wrong about him. He is just like fekus, Shindes, Khattars of India who all want to make hay while the sun shines on Indian cricket.

This money needs to be given to ICC and PCB for reparations and for cheating and manipulating the venue.

Sunil Gavaskar Questions Gautam Gambhir Over Champions Trophy 2025 Reward: "Not A Good Role Model?"

The BCCI announced a cash prize of Rs 58 crore for the Champions Trophy-winning squad with the players and head coach Gautam Gambhir getting Rs 3 crore each. According to BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia, assistant coaches and support staff will get Rs 50 lakh each, while BCCI officials will receive Rs 25 lakh each. Legendary India captain Sunil Gavaskar asked whether Gambhir will be following the example of his predecessor - Rahul Dravid - in refusing to take more amount than his support staff. Following India's T20 World Cup 2024 triumph, Dravid opted to take an equal share of the cash reward as the rest of his support staff. However, Gambhir has not made any such statement till now.

"After the ICC T20 World Cup win and the Board announcement of prize money, the then-coach Rahul Dravid, ever the team man, refused to accept more than his fellow members of the coaching staff and, in fact, shared it equally with his colleagues," Gavaskar wrote in his column for Sportstar.

"It's been a fortnight since the BCCI announced the Champions Trophy rewards, but we haven't heard anything from the current coach on whether he will also do a Dravid. Or is it that Dravid, in this instance, is not a good role model?" he added.

Gavaskar went on to praise the BCCI for rewarding the cricketers for their Champions Trophy victory.

"Now, after our boys won the Champions Trophy, the BCCI announced a whopping ₹58 crore for the squad and the support staff and selection committee. In July last year, after the stirring victory in the ICC T20 World Cup, the BCCI announced ₹125 crore for the squad, support staff, and selectors," he wrote.

"This is truly fantastic, as the Board, which is now awash with funds, is showing its appreciation for the efforts put in by everybody and rewarding them generously. The BCCI is also letting the players keep the prize money that the ICC announced for the winners, which is also a good amount each," he added.
