Coming to BCCI. The conference in Durban put a seal on ICC’s new proposed revenue model for the 2024-27 cycle which will see India receive close to 40% of the share.

The ICC did not explicitly spell out how much money BCCI will earn, but it is expected that the Indian board will make $230 million from the $600 million annual pot for the next four years. This means the BCCI’s share from the ICC pot stands at approximately 38.5%.

How big is this from before?

It’s a massive jump in revenue for BCCI. From 2016 to 2023, the BCCI’s share from the ICC’s central revenue pool was $405 million. BCCI is now expected to make that kind of money in less than two years.

How much will other boards earn?

England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) will be the next biggest winner at approximately $41 million (6.89%) income annually. Cricket Australia (CA) will get $37.53 million (6.25%), while the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) will receive $34.51 million (5.75%). They are the only three boards apart from BCCI to earn over $30 million annually.

The remaining eight Full Members (Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa, Sri Lanka, West Indies and Zimbabawe) will receive less than 5% each.

The 90-plus Associate Members will get approximately US$ 67.5 million per year, around 11% of the revenue pot.
