Rs.1 Crore Reward for Every Indian Cricketer for Winning the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 
Ka-ching! Some pockets just got heavier, as the BCCI opened its coffers to generously reward the Indian cricketers for their stupendous success over their neighbours.
Every Indian cricketer part of India’s ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 squad will get a reward of Rs.1 crore each. The BCCI has decided that the cricketers were worthy of a monetary reward for winning the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011, much like when the cricketers were rewarded for winning the ICC World Twenty20 in South Africa in 2007.

But the BCCI has not forgotten the men who picked these boys. The Indian selectors may have missed the Mohali match, but they will not complain as they have been granted a reward themselves, richer by Rs.25 lakhs each.

And even Gary Kirsten, the Indian coach, and his support staff will receive parting gifts of Rs.50 lakhs each for their part in making the Indian dressing room conducive for such superlative success.

Expect more perks coming the way of the Indian cricketers after his ascent. The Hyundai Verna awaits them for starters.
