MELBOURNE: The International Cricket Council (ICC) have confirmed that England will receive a whopping $US 1.6 million for defeating Pakistan and winning the final of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in Melbourne on Sunday. Pakistan, on the other hand, will receive exactly half the amount that England got ($800,000), while the two losing semi-finalists – India and New Zealand – will collect $400,000 apiece.

The ICC said the eight teams that exited at the Super 12 stage will receive $70,000 each. Like last year at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021, a win in each of the 30 games in the Super 12 phase is worth $40,000 to each team.
