Main point:
Ravi Shastri believes that India should get more than 38.5% revenue from ICC due to India’s huge contribution to cricket. The huge earnings from IPL and TV rights are proof of this.
Delhi: Former Indian cricketer and coach Ravi Shastri believes that India should get more revenue from the International Cricket Council (ICC). He says that India makes a huge contribution in the world of cricket, so it should get more benefits according to its share.
How much does you get at the moment
Currently, India gets 38.5% of the total revenue of ICC. This figure has been set under the new revenue distribution system between 2024 and 2027. However, Ravi Shastri believes that this part should increase further in view of India’s participation and popularity.
IPL changed picture
The Indian Premier League (IPL), which started in 2008, further strengthened India’s hold in cricket. This league attracted players and companies from all over the world. Today, India has become the largest cricket market in the world.
TV rights earns big
Shastri said that whenever India plays a series, the prices of TV rights start touching the sky. This increases a huge increase in ICC’s earnings. He said that it is completely appropriate that India should get as much share as it contributes.
India tops the revenue model
According to the current revenue model of the ICC, 88% of the total income is divided into 12 Test playing countries. Out of this, India, England and Australia get the largest share. India alone gets 38.5%, which is more than any country. England and Australia get less percentage of this.
