BCCI To Reward Team India With Whopping Amount If They Win Women's WC 2025

On the eve of the final clash, news surfaced on social media that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is planning to reward Harmanpreet Kaur-led Team India with a massive bonus but only if they win the summit clash at the Women's World Cup 2025 against South Africa.

According to a report from the news agency, PTI, the top officials in BCCI are planning to reward the Women in Blue with the same amount that was given to Rohit Sharma's side after they won the T20 World Cup 2024.

A BCCI source has confirmed to PTI that there have been discussions that the women's cricket team will receive the same amount as the men's.

"The BCCI supports equal pay for men and women and hence there are lot of discussions that if our girls win the World Cup, the reward won't be anything less compared to men's global triumph. But it isn't nice to make an announcement before they win the Cup," a BCCI source told PTI.

The Indian Men's Cricket Team, including the players and the support staff, was rewarded a whopping amount of Rs. 125 crore after they won the T20 World Cup 2024. Reports suggest that Harmanpreet Kaur-led Team India are just one win away from getting rewarded a massive amount of Rs. 125 crore.
