Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2024 concluded with Islamabad United taking home the title for a “record” third time in the league’s history. The moment of joy for the franchise came just a day after Royal Challengers Bangalore won the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2024 title for the first time in their history. While the two T20 leagues have concluded, the mammoth Indian Premier League (IPL) is all set to begin, with its 17th campaign set to begin on March 22.
Islamabad United, who won the PSL 2024 title, won a prize money of 14,000,000,000 Pakistani Rupees (INR 4.13 Crore approximately) while runners-up Multan Sultans pocketed a sum of 5,600,000,000 PKR Rupees ( 1.65 crore). approx).
When it comes to the IPL, the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) bagged a prize money of Rs 20 crore for winning the IPL 2023 campaign. The Gujarat Titans, who were defeated in the final, pocketed Rs 13 crore a last season.
In WPL 2024, RCB received a prize money of Rs 6 million for winning the title, while Delhi Capitals, runners-up in WPL 2024, won Rs 3 million as prize money.

As you can see from the figures, the Indian Premier League is leaps and bounds ahead of the rest in the count. While the Pakistan Super League is considered a lucrative league, it is not as financially evolved as the Women’s Premier League.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is the richest cricket body in the world and hence the finances involved in the IPL and WPL are far ahead of their counterparts.
