In a move that could potentially pave way for the others to follow suit, the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) has agreed to incentivise its senior men's team with a 100% pay raise from the 2024-25 season.
A recommendation for the state association to match players' BCCI earnings from the domestic circuit has been approved at the MCA's apex council meeting. This effectively doubles a player's earnings through the season.
The BCCI currently pays players at the senior men's level across three slabs. Players with over 40 first-class caps earn INR 60,000 a day, while those who have played 21-40 games take home INR 50,000 a day, and those who have featured in fewer than 20 games earn INR 40,000 a day.
