Salary comparison of Cricket Players: Men vs Women

Can the BCCI finally act after the impressive performance of Mithali Raj and team in the Women's World Cup 2017?
After witnessing their successful campaign in the ICC Women's World Cup 2017, everyone is asking how much the Indian women's cricket team actually earns annually. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has indulged in serious discussions over the matter.
The most appealing part is that the Indian cricket board is actually contemplating how much the hike in the players actually deserve. That is a welcome change in itself.
Say what you may, the disparity in the monetary reward between the men's cricket team and the women in blue, however, still continues. Equality, over here, seems to be a distant dream.

Even if Mithali Raj and team had managed to win the final of the Women's Cricket World Cup 2017 against England, the dream of watching the two teams earning the same amount was impossible.
As of now, the talks are about probably growing in the financial rewards. Mithali Raj and Rest of the Women in Blue Army were set to pocket Rs 50 lakh each by the Indian cricket board.
However, in the face of a backlash from the general cricket fans, the state units have realized that the reward must definitely increase.
"I will propose that the cash award should be Rs 60 lakh for the players and Rs 30 lakh for the support staff.The girls have made us proud and they should be adequately rewarded," Press Trust of India said a BCCI state unit Representative as saying on Wednesday.
"I think no one should have an objection if we are not allowed to pay more. If one can recall after the India vs Australia series, the end of this year's end, COA has announced 50 million Indian men's team for a cash award.
"The general body then decided to increase it to Rs 1 crore per player," the source added.
Coming to player salaries, women's team cricketers clearly do not even reach that margin of money their male counterparts earn.
Current players' salary slab (annual retainership fee):

Grade A salary Rs 2 crore(men) Rs 15 lakh(women)
Grade B salary Rs 1 crore(men) Rs 10 lakh(women)
