IPL 2024 Prize Money
However, as stated by the BCCI rules, every prize money amount used to be divided into two halves between players and franchises. So, if SRH wins the 10th edition of IPL, they could grab 21 crore INR which will go to the players and the rest will go to the franchise.
The prize money for the Indian Premier League (IPL) varies from year to year and is announced by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) shortly before the start of the tournament. As of my knowledge cutoff date in 2021, the prize money for the upcoming IPL seasons has not been announced yet.
However, historically, the IPL prize money has been in the range of several crores of Indian rupees. The winning team of the IPL tournament receives the largest share of the prize money, followed by the runners-up and the other teams in the tournament.
In IPL 2020, the winning team Mumbai Indians received prize money of Rs. 20 Crores, while the runners-up Delhi Capitals received Rs. 12.5 Crores. The third and fourth-placed teams, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bangalore, respectively, received Rs. 8.75 Crores each. Additionally, several individual awards are also given out, such as the Most Valuable Player (MVP), Orange Cap (most runs), and Purple Cap (most wickets), each with their own prize money.
The prize money for IPL 2023 will likely be similar in structure and scale to the previous years’ IPL seasons.
