BCCI announces new contract system for Indian Cricket

The Hon’ble Supreme Court of India appointed Committee of Administrators (CoA) for BCCI on Wednesday announced the Annual Player Contracts for the period from October 2017 to September 2018. The CoA was of the view that the performance and position of Indian Cricket needs to be recognised with the fee structure comparable to the best in the world.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced a new central contract system for Indian cricketers, dividing players into four grades (A+, A, B, and C) with corresponding annual retainers: Grade A+ at ₹7 crore, Grade A at ₹5 crore, Grade B at ₹3 crore, and Grade C at ₹1 crore. These contracts also include match fees and potential bonuses and incentives, according to Indiatimes and Jagran Josh.

Key aspects of the new contract system:
Four-tier system: Players are categorized into four grades based on their performance, experience, and importance to the team.

Fixed retainers: Each grade has a fixed annual retainer, with higher grades earning more.

Match fees: Players also earn match fees for each game played, with varying amounts for Tests, ODIs, and T20Is.

Incentives and bonuses: Players can receive bonuses and awards for exceptional performances.

Other benefits: Central contracts also include medical insurance, access to the National Cricket Academy (NCA) for recovery, and other perks.

Player selection: The new contracts have led to some promotions and demotions, with players like Rishabh Pant moving up to Grade A and Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan returning to the contract list.

Hence, to insulate the player compensation, the CoA has sanctioned the creation of a Players Revenue / Compensation Equalization Fund” (PR/CEF) to which the BCCI will contribute approximately INR 125 Cr per annum from its surplus .(https://www.bcci.tv/articles/2023/news/100117)
