Rs 1 cr bonanza for team

New Delhi, August 13 The Indian cricket team had more reasons to celebrate their historic series win against England as the Board (BCCI) announced a cash bonanza of Rs. 1 crore here today. "I would like to congratulate the Indian contingent for their excellent team work and performance against England in the Test series. I am sure every Indian will feel proud of our players who have won a series in England after a gap of 21 years," BCCI President Sharad Pawar said in a statement. "As President of the Board I am happy to announce a prize money of Rs. 1 crore to the 16 players, the Cricket Manager and the two coaches. A separate amount would be provided to other cricketing staff." India won the three-Test series against England 1-0. They won the second match at Trent Bridge and drew the first and the last at Lord's and The Oval respectively. Their previous series win in England, a 2-0 success, came in 1986. — PTI

Actually I was thinking today that £2000 for man of the match was peanuts. I make that with 2-3 days of project work. For someone who toiled 5 days and plays international cricket the man of the match £££ should be lot more. How much is match fees for Indian and English players? What about yearly contract pay?

Chandu Borde was overwhelmed with the bonanza and said: "Many thanks to BBC chief, Lala Amarnath for announcing this award. It has been a very successful tour of NZ and I would like to thank Indian captain Rawal Dev for his leadership and man of the series Jahangir Khan for his wicket keeping."
