T20 World Cup 2026: The ICC T20 World Cup 2026 has become a memorable tournament for Zimbabwe. The team captained by Sikandar Raza defeated a big country like Australia in the group stage and made it to the Super-8 for the first time. This is a big achievement for the Associate Nation, but there is another important aspect related to it, that is the prize money. Actually, the International Cricket Council gives prize money to every team participating in the tournament, which depends on the performance of the teams. This time Zimbabwe is going to get its biggest prize money till date.
How much money will ICC give to Zimbabwe team?
ICC had announced a total prize money of US $ 11.25 million for the T20 World Cup 2024. This time also the same amount of prize money is expected. In such a situation, on qualifying for the Super-8, Zimbabwe will get a guaranteed amount of approximately US $ 382,500 (about Rs 3.5 crore) from ICC. This amount is huge for the team, as it can be more than the annual ICC funding for associate countries.
If Zimbabwe team also reaches the semi-finals, this prize money will increase further. Apart from this, ICC also gives separate money for winning every match in the T20 World Cup. Excluding the semi-finals and finals, teams also receive US$31,154 (approximately Rs 28 lakh) for each match won. Let us tell you, Zimbabwe has won 2 matches so far in the group stage and one match is still left, which is against Sri Lanka. After this, Zimbabwe team will play a total of 3 matches in Super-8. In such a situation, there is a big opportunity to increase your prize money with the team.
