The increase, which will take effect on July 1st, will be applied to all three pension categories under the PCB Players’ Welfare Policy, according to a statement from the PCB.

Players who have played 10 or fewer Test matches, 11 to 20 Test matches, and 21 or more Test matches would get monthly compensations of 142000, 148000, and 154000 rupees, respectively, according to the PCB.

The widows of late cricketers will get their pensions. Previously, the players’ legal heirs were only entitled to a single payment equal to a year’s worth of benefits based on their bracket.

PCB Players’ Welfare Policy revised. Major changes include:

• Former cricketers’ pensions increased by PKR100,000
• Transfer of pensions to widows in the unfortunate event of a player’s demise
• Annual inflationary increase in pensions
