  • PCB Highlights 1 April – 30 June 5Th Edition
    PCB Highlights 1 April – 30 June 5th Edition PCB to spend PKR5.29billion on cricket in 2020-21 season The Board of Governors of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) held their second meeting of the year via a videoconference in which they approved a PKR7.76billion operating expenditure budget for the 2020-21 fiscal year. This was a 10 per cent reduction from the 2019-20 fiscal year as the PCB continued its austerity drive as part of its financial management exercise. While budgets were reduced in other functional areas, there was no reduction in cricket-related activities as the PCB committed to spending PKR5.29billion on cricket over the next 12 months. This includes PKR1.8billion in High Performance, PKR1.4bil- lion on international cricket, PKR1.4billion on HBL Pakistan Super League 2021, PKR109million on Medical and Sports Sciences, PKR411million on women’s cricket and PKR39million on disabled cricket. The High Performance has the biggest budget as it incorporates domestic cricket expenses as following restructuring, the acade- mies and domestic cricket have been brought under one umbrella. This cost includes players/match officials/curator contracts, domestic events and their prize moneys and academy programmes.
