ICC earns close to $600 million per year and its earning from selling the media rights across five different regions of the world is around $3.2 billion, with Disney alone paying a staggering $3 billion to the global body for broadcast rights for international cricket in India.

The ICC’s finance and commercial affairs (F $ CA) committee proposed the new financial model on the basis of a few criteria. These criteria, as per ESPNCricinfo are:

  1. Cricket history.
  2. Performance in both men’s and women’s ICC events over the last 16 years.
  3. Contribution to the ICC’s commercial revenue.
  4. And, an equal weightage for the status of being a Full Member.
