BCCI Mulling Performance-Based Incentives For Indian Team

Encouraged by the financial model followed by Cricket Australia and England & Wales Cricket Board, the Board of Control for Cricket in India is "planning to introduce a performance-based incentive for the Indian team for each and every home and away series," according to the PTI. There was an "initial blueprint that was drawn" at the BCCI's finance committee meeting on Tuesday. While the BCCI's finance committee has "agreed in principle on going the corporate way where profit sharing will be directly proportional to the board's revenue, the members discussed the possible ways of doing it." For example, if India wins a Test series at home against a particular opposition, the cricketers will be "entitled to a specific amount of incentive from the board apart from their match fees." Similarly, the amount will "shoot up when they are playing some other opposition on foreign soil." The amount will "depend on the nature of opposition, conditions, home and away and impact of the performance." Meanwhile, the finance committee on Tuesday "decided that India's women cricketers will be divided into two groups A and B for the gradation payment system" that the BCCI is planning to introduce. Sources said that the ones in Grade A will be "getting an annual retainership fee" of Rs 10 lakh ($15,730) while those in grade B will be getting Rs 5 lakh ($7,865) (PTI, 7/1).
