The reward of INR 51 crore is higher than the prize money India will receive from the ICC. The apex cricket body will be handing out the tournament winners a prize of USD 4.48 million, which roughly translates to INR 39.78 crore.

Speaking to news agency ANI, BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia confirmed that the Indian board will be giving the women’s team a prize of INR 51 crore as they want to show their appreciation for winning a competitive tournament like the World Cup.

“Definitely, we have to thank Jay Shah, who is the chair of ICC, because just one month prior to this tournament, they increased the prize money of the ICC Women’s World Cup. That is, there is an upshot of about 300 per cent of the prize money,” said Saikia.Also Read: Virat Kohli, Sachin Tendulkar erupt with pride as India women script their own ‘1983 moment’ with World Cup win

The summit clash saw India outplaying South Africa in all three departments of the game, and this was the main reason behind the side lifting their maiden World Cup title.

The game began with the Proteas winning the toss and opting to bowl first. India posted 298 runs on the board owing to Shafali Verma’s 87-run knock. South Africa skipper Laura Wolvaardt then answered back with a century; however, the knock went in vain as Deepti Sharma took five wickets, setting up India’s 52-run win.
