NEW DELHI: The ICC on Friday announced that the victorious team in the upcoming World Test Championship Final between India and Australia, scheduled for next month at The Oval, will be awarded a prize money of USD 1.6 million.
Meanwhile, the runners-up will receive a substantial sum of USD 800,000.
The championship decider is set to take place at The Oval in London from June 7-11, with June 12 designated as the reserve day.
The tournament prize money is the same as that for the inaugural World Test Championship Final in 2019-21 — a total purse of USD 3.8 million besides the WTC Mace.
The Kane Williamson-led New Zealand side were rewarded with USD 1.6 million besides the glittering Mace in Southampton two years ago, courtesy an eight-wicket win over India in the six-day final.
All nine teams will get a share in the USD 3.8 million purse with South Africa earning USD 450,000 for finishing third in the WTC 2021-23 standings.
England, who made a late surge and finished their campaign in fourth spot, will bag USD 350,000.
Sri Lanka, who were among the top teams in the race for a spot in the decider during the epic finale, finished fifth to earn USD 200,000.
