- In a landmark move, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced that it will be implementing a new pay equity policy for its contracted women cricketers.
- Thus, it is effectively paying men and women cricketers the same match fees.
- In cricket, apart from the match-wise fees, there is a retainership payment system.
- The first country to do so was New Zealand in July 2022.
- Similarly, the Committee of Administrators of the Table Tennis Federation of India, said in May 2022 that it would offer equal prize money for men and women in all the national zonal tournaments.
