This year’s edition will see the stakes raised, with the male champions earning $1 million and a trophy, the runners-up $250,000 and a trophy, and additional prizes for MVP, Best Bowler, Best Batsman, and Man of the Final.
In the female category, the champions will receive $300,000 and a trophy, while the runners-up take home $150,000 and a trophy. Similar individual awards will be presented for MVP, Best Bowler, Best Batsman, and Player of the Final.
