The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) will receive $405 million from the International Cricket Council (ICC) as per an agreed revenue-sharing model after the recently-concluded ICC Champions Trophy.

"The BCCI has agreed to the terms and conditions," a BCCI official told PTI.

The staggering amount came following a Committee of Administrators (CoA)'s rigid stand on revenue-sharing model with the international board, which they had proposed well before the start of the tournament.

In the Champions Trophy, Virat Kohli-led India finished the tourney as runners-up after losing to Pakistan in the final at The Oval.

BCCI's share is USD 266 million more than the share of England Cricket Board (ECB), which are said to recive USD 139 million.

Among other Test playing nations, Australia, Pakistan, West Indies, New Zealand, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh will get USD 128 million each.
