WOMEN’S CRICKET: The England and Wales Cricket Board have ignored an independent commission recommendation to equalise wages for men and women in the Hundred competitions.

Their new salary scale will actually widen the gender pay gap in 2025.

Despite an overall 25 per cent increase in salary funding, men in the lowest-earning category will now receive £31,000, up 3.3 per cent, while their female equivalent will be paid £10,000.
