Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) has offered 20 national and 15 emerging women cricketers, with six and three-month contracts, respectively.
The players have been grouped under four ‘rate’ categories, namely A, B, C and D, whilst the emerging women cricketers have been offered a fixed monthly rate and an attendance allowance.

“The ‘contracted’ players were nominated by the national women’s selection committee, based on the performance, availability and future requirements,” it stated.
The release, however, does not mention how much each category will be paid.
