Hero IWL player of the match is awarded INR 5000 #shame

The Hero IWL Hero of the match receives a check for INR 5000, compared to IPL, it is 20 times less, where player(s) get INR 1,00,000 for different awards.

Fans took to social media to show their discontent over the award of the prize money.

If we compare it to IPL, player get INR 1,00,000 for several awards.

• The fastest delivery
• Most 4’s.
• Most 6’s.
• Highest strike rate.
• Game changing moment
• Player of the match
• Having an impact in the powerplay(first 6 over of each innings)

Compared to this, even if a player scores a hattrick, the player will receive just 5,000 RS for it.

This shows the vast difference in the following and the sponsorship between the 2 games.

The prize money in the Hero IWL is comparatively less than that of Hero I-League and Hero ISL.

Even though India is changing from being a 1 sport country, it will still take time for other sports to get fame.
