Prize money of T20 leagues is always a topic of discussion in the cricketing circles. It is quite well-known that the highest prize money in the business of T20 leagues is offered by the Indian Premier League (IPL). The champion team of IPL gets INR 20 crore. Meanwhile, in Pakistan, the winner of the Pakistan Super League gets INR 3.4 crore.
Different leagues have different amounts of prize money. The league which gives the second-highest prize money is South Africa’s SA20, with the prize money being INR 15 crore.
In West Indies’ Caribbean Premier League, the prize money is INR 8.14 crore, while in BCCI’s Women’s Premier League, the winning team received INR 6 crore.
UAE launched the International League T20, with the prize money being INR 5.7 crore. Australia’s Big Bash League has a prize money of 3.66 crore, which is just INR 26 lakh more than the prize money in Pakistan Super League. Here’s a list of the two T20 leagues which have a lower prize money on offer than PSL.
