South Africa’s ICC revenue share in the 2024–2027 cycle is about US$26.24 million per year , which is roughly R491 million to R505 million annually depending on the source’s exchange rate used.

Quick Scoop

That figure refers to Cricket South Africa’s share of ICC distributed revenue , not prize money from one tournament.

A separate ICC tournament payout can be much smaller or larger depending on results; for example, South Africa’s T20 World Cup losing-semifinalist payout was around US$1.01 million in 2026.

What the number means

  • Annual ICC revenue share: about US$26.24 million.
  • Local-currency estimate: about R491 million to R505 million a year.
  • Not the same as tournament prize money: ICC event prize money is paid separately from the revenue-sharing model.

Context

South Africa’s share is much smaller than India’s in the same cycle, because ICC revenue distribution heavily favors bigger cricket markets.

In the 2024–2027 model, South Africa’s slice is listed at 4.37% of the ICC’s distributed earnings.

One-line answer

South Africa gets about US$26.24 million a year from ICC revenue distribution, or roughly half a billion rand annually.
