The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced a massive cash reward for the Indian team following their triumph in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

BCCI will award the team Rs58 crore (approximately Rs1.88 billion) — a sum three times larger than the official ICC prize money for the tournament.

According to BCCI, the prize money will be distributed among players, coaching staff, and selection committee members who played a role in the historic victory.

Under Rohit Sharma’s captaincy, India remained undefeated throughout the tournament and secured their third Champions Trophy title by defeating New Zealand in the final.

BCCI President Roger Binny praised the team’s achievement, saying, “Winning back-to-back ICC titles is a special feat. This reward recognises the team’s hard work and exceptional performance on the global stage.”

He further highlighted India’s growing dominance in world cricket, adding, “This is our second ICC trophy in 2025, following the ICC U-19 Women’s World Cup victory. These achievements reflect the strength of our cricketing system.”

Comparison with ICC prize money

India’s official prize money from the ICC for winning the tournament was $2.24 million (Rs19.35 crore), while the runner-up New Zealand received $1.12 million, which is approximately Rs310 million.

On March 9, India lifted the Champions Trophy after a thrilling four-wicket victory over New Zealand in the final, hosted by Pakistan.
