The International Cricket Council has given the BCCI a significant increase in its revenue allotment of 72%. Following the ICC’s adoption of the new revenue sharing scheme at its annual conference in Durban, the information was distributed to all the state associations by email from BCCI Secretary Jay Shah.
The BCCI’s share of revenue has increased under the new model from 22.4% to 38.5%, which is an astounding increase of over 72%. This increase is evidence of the state associations’ and BCCI members’ support and cooperation in their joint efforts.
ICC and Indian broadcaster Disney Star entered into a ground-breaking media rights arrangement, which is responsible for the increase in revenue distribution. The BCCI’s financial situation has significantly improved thanks to its exceptional $3.1 billion, four-year broadcast rights contract. The eight-year-old broadcast agreements were only worth $1.9 billion.
Jay Shah, the secretary of the BCCI, thanked everyone for their contributions and conveyed his appreciation for this accomplishment.
“BCCI’s share has significantly increased. This accomplishment is a credit to the teamwork and help of all of our state associations, as well as my coworkers at the BCCI, he said, as reported by Cricketmood
The BCCI has suggested that the ICC’s strategic fund should also get a large donation in addition to its revenue allotment. This money will play a significant role in the growth of cricket and the sport itself.
The visionary leadership of the BCCI, according to IPL chairman Arun Singh Dhumal, was responsible for this success. Under the astute leadership of Mr. Jay Shah, the BCCI has strengthened its reputation as a progressive organization, he said. It was just a matter of time until the International Cricket Council (ICC) recognized its contributions to the game of cricket.
The unexpected increase in income allocation emphasizes India’s expanding significance in world cricket. India is without a doubt a cricketing behemoth and the sport’s dominant country. The success of the BCCI financially will undoubtedly aid the expansion and development of cricket in the country.
