# Cricket: India’s men’s team received a cash bonus of 122-million-rand for winning the recent Champions Trophy hosted by Pakistan. This is three times the amount of their prize money for clinching the one-day tournament. India’s governing body, the BCCI, regarded as the world’s richest cricket board, says winning the tournament shortly after clinching the T20 World Cup is special, and the monetary reward recognises India’s dedication and excellence on the global stage. The amount is shared between the players, support staff and selectors.
