The International Cricket Council (ICC) on Thursday unveiled a significantly enhanced prize pool for the 2023–25 ICC World Test Championship (WTC) final, which is set to take place at the iconic Lord’s Cricket Ground between South Africa and Australia. The total prize money for this edition stands at an impressive 5.76 million dollars, more than double that of the previous two cycles.

ICC Chairman Jay Shah announced the updated prize structure, emphasising the council's renewed commitment to Test cricket. “It's exciting to announce that the winner of the WTC 25 Final between South Africa and Australia will earn 3.6 million dollars, with the runner-up to receive 2.1 million dollars. The increase in prize money exhibits our efforts to prioritize Test cricket and build on momentum from previous WTC cycles,” Shah stated.
