The perk of winning the T20 Cricket World Cup is being able to call yourselves world champions, as England did in 2022 when they beat Pakistan.
But for the governing bodies and chiefs will be keen on the cash teams can earn from winning matches in the Caribbean and United States.
Tournament winners get $2.45m plus about $30,000 for winning each match.
Tomorrow’s losing finalists will get $1.28m while the sums diminish from there on.
Therefore a winning side who went through the tournament unbeaten could achieve the $2.45m prize for lifting the trophy, as well as seven times the $31,154 winning fee.
That, in total, could see a side take home $2.7m in total from the T20 Cricket World Cup in what would be a handy prize money boost for the coffers.

In addition to this, of course, there will be some commercial impact from sponsors and broadcast revenue, which the ICC divides amongst its members.
