What bonuses will cricketers get for historic win in Australia

The Bangladesh cricket team has won a historic Test against Australia in Darwin. This is an incredible achievement in the history of Bangladeshi cricket. Captain Nazmul Hossain Shanto said that defeating Australia in Darwin is the biggest achievement in history.

Pakistan has not won on Australian soil in this century, and Sri Lanka has never won. The 9-wicket victory in the Darwin Test is the biggest by wickets for any Asian country on Australian soil.

What bonuses will cricketers get after such an achievement? In this regard, Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) President Tamim Iqbal said, ‘Let the bonus issue remain between us (players and board). We will discuss it with the players.’

The BCB President also said, ‘As Bangladesh Cricket Board, we are very proud of this achievement of the players. I hope Bangladesh cricket will go further from here. This victory will send a big message internationally. It is not just a victory, it is a powerful message. We are all very happy.’

Bangladesh is now at number four in the points table of the current cycle of the Test Championship. This cycle has two Tests each against West Indies and England at home. Bangladesh will also play two Tests against them in South Africa.

Winning all four Tests at home will also create the possibility of playing the Test Championship final. Tamim also expressed hope, ‘The way they are playing, anything is possible. I don’t want to think too far ahead. It is the job of the team management and the players, they will think about it.
