This World Cup, the 13th edition, will have the highest prize money for the winners of a women's global tournament: USD 4.48 million, a 239 per cent increase from the USD 1.32 million awarded to Australia in 2022.
The losing finalists, too, will earn more than the earlier top prize money, assured of more than $2.1 million this time. The winners of the previous two editions won $1.6 million, while the losing finalists got $800,000.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) has announced the prize money for the Champions Trophy 2025. The world cricket body has massively increased the prize pool for the tournament, which returns for the first time since 2017.
The ICC has also lifted the total prize pool for the 2024 edition to USD 7.95 million, which is more than double the USD 2.45 million on offer in 2023. The upcoming event is the first in which the ICC will award women equal prize money as men for their respective events, a decision that was taken in June 2023.
Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC) is one of India’s biggest (and most lucrative) game shows. The show, which is now in its 10th season, still dominates TRPs.
The 2017 US Open will be held from August 28 to September 10.
