The 2024 Pakistan Super League (PSL) has come to an end, with Islamabad United winning the title for the “record-breaking” third time in the league’s history. Just a day after Royal Challengers Bangalore won the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2024 for the first time in their history, the team celebrated a joyful moment. While the two T20 leagues have concluded, the massive Indian Premier League (IPL) is about to kick off with the 17th edition kicking off on March 22.

Islamabad United, who won the PSL 2024 title, received a prize money of PKR 140,000,000 (approximately Rs. 4.13 billion), while runners-up Multan Sultans received PKR 560,000,000 (approximately Rs. 1.65 billion). about).

On the IPL front, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) bagged a whopping Rs 20 crore for winning the IPL 2023 tournament. The Gujarat Titans were defeated in the final and earned Rs 13 crore last season.

As can be seen from the data, the Indian Premier League is far ahead in the standings. While the Pakistan Super League is considered a lucrative league, it is not as financially developed as the Women’s Super League.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is the richest cricket body in the world, so the financial health of the IPL and WPL is far ahead of their peers.
