Eighteen ECB contracts on offer worth £90,000-£130,000Details agreed before England flew to UAE for World T20
England’s female cricketers will receive pay rises of more than 30% when the next round of central contracts are issued in October, with some multiyear deals on offer for the first time.
The historic move to longer-term contracts follows the England and Wales Cricket Board giving multiyear deals to some of England’s male stars last year and will be a major boost to Heather Knight’s side before the Women’s T20 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates, which begins next week.
