Indian women's cricket captain Mitali Raj He has been playing cricket for a long time.
When he started playing cricket in India, he had no sponsorship. Mitali Raj's father spent a lot of money on buying cricket equipment. For Mitali, the kind of equipment an international player used to buy.
After the recent Indian women's cricket team won a few wins, Indian Cricket Board has increased the salary of Mitali Raj. His salary increased to 22 thousand five hundred dollars from 77 thousand dollars. Mitali Raj is now the world's most expensive female cricketer.
He said, I had to struggle a lot to come to this position. It was a time when I played with just one bat throughout the year. Now I can bat as much as I want for a series.
But still, compared to the male cricketer of the sky, the difference between the sky and the difference between women cricketers. It's a dream to fall in the difference. Mitali Raj gets less than half of her salary compared to the 'C grade' of India's male cricket team ie third-grade cricketers.
The biggest reason behind the decline in women's cricketers is that, in women's matches, less visitors and less money is available for sponsorship. Women's cricketers in England are less than women's cricketers.
Women's cricketers won the World Cup. But their condition did not change. The England women's cricket captain, Heather Knight, feels that it will take time to change the situation. When men first started professional cricket, it took a lot of time to get to today's position, saying Heather Knight.
In England, a male cricketer earns more than 38 percent less than the income of female cricketers. The difference between salary and wages between men and women is very much in the game of cricket in the country.
Heather Knight says he is now discussing with the authorities about increasing the wages and hoping that the matter may be favorable to it. There are mixed reactions to the vast difference between income between male and female cricketers, to Indian cricket lovers.
A female audience said, I think women cricketers should get more salary. Then parents will encourage their girls to play cricket.
On the other hand, a male audience said, who will earn money, is determined by the economy and trade. Men's cricket is more popular and there are more advertisements. That's why male cricketers earn more because they think the audience.
