Test squad incentives are announced by BCCI

With the announcement of rewards for players participating in the longest format of the game in India. The Board of Control for sport in India (BCCI) has maintained its efforts to safeguard red ball sport in general and Test cricket in particular. Jay Shah made the historic decision to declare that members of the Test squads. He will receive incentives; in fact, the new programme will benefit even non-playing members.

“The goal is to promote and safeguard Test cricket.” Jay Shah stated India’s 4-1 victory over England on Saturday afternoon in Dharamsala. “The plan will help the team even if they are not players,” the BCCI secretary continued.

Kevin Pietersen praised the action right away, expressing his approval. It’s so admirable that JayShah is working so hard to safeguard Test Cricket! To defend Test Cricket in this way. We need strong leaders! On social media, the former England captain wrote, “(sic).”

According to Jay Shah incentives announcement. Players who are in the starting lineup for more than 50% of the Test matches in a given year will be eligible for an incentive worth Rs 30 lakh. Each match, the non-playing member will be eligible for Rs 15 lakh. A player will receive Rs 45 lakh each game if they participate in 75% of the Tests in a given year. Members who do not participate in games will receive half of that total, or Rs 22.5 lakh. This is in addition to the player’s match fee of Rs 15 lakh from a test.

The effort follows the BCCI’s decision to seriously consider individuals who are not paying their dues in domestic cricket’s red ball league. Players bycotted domestic red-ball cricket including Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer were denied central contracts by the BCCI.

The BCCI’s is making this decision at a time when other cricket-playing nations are beginning to favor other formats more. For example, Cricket South Africa recently traveled to New Zealand for an away Test series with an experimental third-string team.

But India’s coach, Rahul Dravid, expressed disappointment that the BCCI had to declare prizes in order to safeguard Test cricket. He stated that, in his opinion, the BCCI declaration is more of an honorific than an inducement or incentive.

“That the BCCI is acknowledging it is good. Following the Dharamsala Test, the India coach remarked, “I think it’s a reward, not an incentive.” “I believe that everyone aspires to play Test cricket, based on the guys who entered and participated in this series. It’s simply an understanding of what you must possess in order to live and participate in Test cricket. You don’t realize until you get here that, although it can be incredibly rewarding, there are moments when things can be difficult and difficult.
“I am sure that there will be a lot of people who still want to play test cricket, especially in a series like this (the recently concluded five-Test series against England) and Test matches we’ve seen in the last four to five months, if they are well supported and well documented by people like you,” Dravid said at the media conference following the match.

“I sincerely hope that playing Test cricket won’t be motivated by money. It’s wonderful to see that the effort and difficulty of playing Test cricket are acknowledged. I hope not, because I wouldn’t view it as a motivator to force people to play Test cricket. I hope that’s not the case in real life. And to play 100 Test matches, like (R) Ashwin has done, is a feat that only a unique person can accomplish.

You deserve to endure a great deal. You guys gave Ashwin a lot of love tonight, and Jonny Bairstow gave Ben Stokes a lot of love a few games back. I believe you are all aware of how difficult the format is and how important it is to be able to maintain consistency and endure over time in this format. “We don’t commemorate 100 Twenty20 matches in the same manner, do we?” questioned 164-time Test player Rahul Dravid.
