The 13th edition of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup will see the winners of the 10-team tournament earn US$4 million.
Winners will go home with US$ 4 million from the overall US$10 million pot, while runners-up will earn US$2 million, said ICC, cricket’s global governing body, in a statement yesterday.
The losing semi-finalists will get $800,000 each. The 48-match event will be played across 10 venues from 5 October. The final will be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on November 19.
Claiming to be the biggest cricket World Cup ever, ICC said, there would be prizes for each league match won. Teams will play each other once in a round-robin format, with the top four making it to the semi-finals.
The winners of each match in the group stage will receive US$ 40,000 and the six teams that do not qualify for the semi-finals will receive a payment of US$ 100,000.
