Top 10 Richest Cricket Boards In The World

 

Cricket’s influence is steadily expanding worldwide, evolving from a few elite teams to a global phenomenon enjoyed by players from every corner of the globe. Traditionally limited to certain regions, cricket has found new fans as many individuals in countries with limited familiarity with the sport are beginning to embrace it.

A significant part of cricket’s revenue surge in the last decade has come from the betting industry, turning the sport into a major revenue generator for participating nations. This financial boom has inspired a keen investment in growing cricket, with the International Cricket Council (ICC) and individual cricket boards fostering the game’s development in new regions. Below, we review the world’s wealthiest cricket boards today.

Top 10 Wealthiest Cricket Boards in the World

1. BCCI — INR 18,760 Crore

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is cricket’s wealthiest governing body, with a staggering valuation of INR 18,760 crore. Dominating global cricket both financially and culturally, BCCI has outpaced even the ICC in terms of revenue, a feat primarily driven by the unparalleled success of the Indian Premier League (IPL). With Team India’s relentless cricketing schedule and a roster of high-profile sponsorships, BCCI’s financial success continues to soar.

2. Cricket Australia (CA) — INR 658 Crore

With a value of INR 658 crore, Cricket Australia ranks second among cricket boards worldwide. Established in 1905, CA’s growth is evident through their notable sponsors, including Vodafone, Dettol, and Toyota, and the success of their own T20 league, the Big Bash. These revenue streams have contributed significantly to CA’s prosperity.

3. England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) — INR 492 Crore

Valued at INR 492 crore, the ECB is cricket’s third-richest board. England’s rich cricketing heritage, combined with innovative leagues like the Vitality T20 Blast and the Hundred, ensures a steady influx of sponsorship revenue from brands such as New Balance and Lifebuoy. Founded in 1997, the ECB brings together England’s regional county boards under one umbrella.

4. Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) — INR 458 Crore

The PCB has seen remarkable growth, placing fourth among the wealthiest cricket boards with a valuation of INR 458 crore. Their earnings have been significantly boosted by the Pakistan Super League (PSL), a tournament that not only enhances PCB’s revenue but also elevates Pakistan’s cricketing profile globally.

5. Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) — INR 425 Crore

With a valuation of INR 425 crore, BCB has exceeded expectations and surpassed boards in countries like South Africa and New Zealand. Founded in 1972, BCB benefits from strong sponsorship partnerships, and the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) further adds to its income.

Cricket South Africa follows closely with an estimated value of INR 392 crore. The Zimbabwe Cricket Board ranks seventh with INR 317 crore, reflecting notable progress in the last few years. Finally, Cricket West Indies and New Zealand Cricket conclude the list at INR 125 crore and INR 75 crore, respectively.

The 14-year-old left-handed opener stunned everyone earlier this week with a blazing 35-ball hundred, earning praise for his fearless style and powerful batting in just his fourth IPL game. Nicknamed “Boss Baby,” Suryavanshi has quickly drawn comparisons to Chris Gayle, known as the “Universe Boss.” However, against the  Mumbai Indians, fans hoping for another big show were left disappointed  as the teenager was out for zero.
