A $53 million increase in pay for women and massive increases in the Big Bash salary caps headline the new five-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) struck between Cricket Australia and the Australian Cricketers' Association. The new deal retains the 27.5 per cent revenue share agreement that was central to the acrimonious negotiations in 2017, with a further 2.5 per cent set aside for performance-based payments. It will see all professional players share in a projected $634m over the next five years, a 26 per cent increase from the existing agreement.
