−	Mumbai : In times when cricketers make news for making money when they are sold for huge sums in the IPL auction, Team India’s victorious cricketers have just broken the bank after winning the T20 World Cup.
−
−	~~In a move which reflects why BCCI is a financial superpower in the cricketing world and calls the shots in the game, board secretary Jay Shah announced prize money of Rs 125 crore for Team India.~~
−	~~“The team has showcased exceptional talent, determination, and sportsmanship throughout the tournament.~~
−
−	~~Congratulations to all the players, coaches, and support staff for this outstanding achievement!” Shah posted on X.~~
−
−	“Under the exceptional leadership of Rohit Sharma, this team has shown remarkable resolve and resilience, becoming the first team in the history of the ICC T20 World Cup to win the tournament unbeaten. They have faced and silenced their critics with stellar performances time and again,” Shah added.
−
−	~~''' Each player in the team may get 5cr as reward '''~~
−
−
−	The massive booty of Rs 125 crore awarded to players and support staff tells you about the BCCI’s unbridled joy at Team India finally ending a desperate wait for its first T20 World Cup title since 2007, the first World Cup crown since 2011, and the first ICC title since 2013.
−
−	It’s not clear how this massive prize money will get distributed amongst the players and the support staff. India had picked a 15-member squad, with four reserve players, for the Cup. The roughly 15-member support staff was led by head coach Rahul Dravid, and included the batting (Vikram Rathour), bowling (Paras Mhambrey) and fielding coach (T Dilip). Then, there were three throwdown specialists, three physios (two initially, and then another one flew on after one fell ill), one trainer, manager, logistics manager, the video analyst, security and integrity officer. There could still be more members of the support staff added to this list.
−
−	It is estimated that all the 15 players of the squad could end up receiving at least Rs 5 crores each, while the four reserve players and the members of the support staff too will receive at least Rs 1 crore.
−
−	~~It is learnt that the prize money amount is more than six times of what the team received from the ICC ($2.45 mil- lion, or Rs 20.37 crore) for winning the World Cup.~~
−
−	Compare this to what the then much financially weaker BCCI rewarded to ‘Kapil’s Devils’ 41 years ago for upsetting the mighty West Indies at Lord’s on June 25 to win India’s maiden limited overs World Cup! Recently, at an event in Mumbai, former India skipper Dilip Vengsarkar, who was a member of that team, recalled, “When we won the World Cup in 1983, the then BCCI president, NKP Salve, announced a prize money of Rs 25,000 per player. At that point, when Lata Mangeshkar (legendary singer) heard that we would get this prize money, she said: ‘I’ll have an evening (concert) for the players, and subsequently, she had an evening for the players in Delhi, and we received a cheque of Rs 1 lakh each for the first time in our lives!”
−
−	However, in 2024, a time where the players have often been accused of prioritising the IPL over national duty, this kind of a sum, while it appears a tad extravagant at first, is par for the course. “In the age of the IPL, where players are paid handsomely by their franchises, Rs 125 crore to a team for winning the T20 World Cup is a simple message to the players — win trophies for India and you’ll be cash-rich,” a BCCI member told TOI.

−
−	MELBOURNE: These are strange times in the fast mutating world of T20s. The pressure to constantly win in what is essentially a fickle, abridged version of something intended to play out over longer hours has resulted in some quirky thinking. On the back of the hundreds of games played in franchise cricket across the world and the hours of data they provide, the format has evolved to become a highly strategic, high-on-unorthodox-skills game.
−
−	Multiple backroom inputs, power-hitting obsessions, relentless slow bowling and wide-yorker remedies, rigid and predictable match-ups have all contributed to nearly erasing the element of surprise. Yet captains and coaches continue to believe in these trends because it all somehow works, or because they believe it works.
−
−	~~A batter, for example, may believe he will get to face a Harshal Patel slower ball but is still unable to find a way to manoeuvre past it.~~
−	Conversely, an unfancied team may find itself better placed to upset the apple cart against bigger, better, more resourceful outfits, like we have seen already in this T20 World Cup, though it has barely just begun.
−
−	So where does that leave India, who kickstarted the public obsession with this format by winning the first-ever World T20 in South Africa back in 2007? It seems like just yesterday that a longhaired, fresh-faced and unfancied MS Dhoni successfully led a team of either those looking to prove themselves for the first time, or those looking to prove themselves all over again.
−
−	Those were the days of cricketers either cautiously dipping their toes in uncharted waters or, like some of India’s biggest cricketers did at that time, thumbing their noses at the format. The monetization came later.
−
−	Among the big names in that team, Virender Sehwag was looking to make a comeback in more ‘important’ formats while Gautam Gambhir was desperately seeking more game time. Irfan Pathan proved his worth again but was already being considered a has-been. Yuvraj and Harbhajan played key roles. Rohit Sharma, captain now, was still a
−	~~relative unknown looking to make it big and proved his class at crucial moments.~~
−
−	Rahul Dravid, coach now, captain in other formats then until he stood down, will remember the impact of the tournament. Funnily enough, a bizarre ‘bowlout’ decided a tied Indo-Pak game late into one Durban night, and what should have been perceived as a completely non-serious affair instead led to fervent, jingoistic crowd chants which drowned out Dhoni’s voice in the post-match interaction.
−
−	An electric final, again against Pakistan, Yuvraj’s six sixes... has there ever been a more memorable T20 event? It was still the days of anchor-hitter opening combos and basically an ODI approach to the 20-over game, but nonetheless there was some element of the intangible, some whiff of what we call ‘magic’, that sparked the public imagination. It was Indian cricket remixed in a refreshing manner.
−
−	Fifteen years later, Rohit is leading the team in Australia looking for a second T20 world title, making him the best placed to put a finger on the intangibles and take a leaf out of what went right in 2007.
−
−	“It has been a while since we won the World Cup,” Rohit told bcci.tv. “The motive and the whole thought process is to win the World Cup, but we know that we need to do a lot of things right to get there, so one step at a time for us.”
−
−	Rohit will know that one big part of that ‘magic’ came from Dhoni himself. His captaincy and bowling changes were, simply put, effective. India had just played a solitary T20I before the event, not the glut of matches teams play now, and T20 had not yet been dissected ad infinitum, allowing Dhoni some creative freedom.
−
−	Some of Dhoni’s moves turned the tide India’s way at crucial moments, like opting for non-regular bowlers like Uthappa and Sehwag in the ‘bowlout’, unlike Pakistan, or using RP Singh so cannily against South Africa, or using Joginder Singh to defend 13 runs in the last over in the final. Dhoni dared to think out of the box and the new, untested format allowed him to do so.

 If there is one thing the group 1 stage of this T20 World Cup has driven home, it is that there are no longer any 'minnows' at the event. The stage started with former champions Sri Lanka being thrashed by Namibia and ended with Ireland dumping the West Indies, the only team to have won the Cup twice, out of the competition.
