PSL Prize Money (2019)
Pakistan Super League is one of the most exciting leagues of the world. What makes leagues exciting and high rated is the involvement of money. As already listed, the PSL franchises were not sold cheaply, with the most expensive one being Karachi Kings whose rights were sold out for $26 million. The PSL broadcasting rights are also expensive and the title sponsorship belongs to HBL since the start and it has not come cheaply either.
PSL Teams Title Sponsors
In 2016, HBL bought the title sponsorship for 3 years for $5 Million, however, when it expired, HBL renewed the sponsorship for whooping $14.3 Million in 2019 for another 3 years. This shows how the involvement of money has increased in the Pakistan Super League (PSL).
The PSL prize money has also increased over the years, here is an account of the prize money distributed through the PSL.

PSL 2019 Prize money
It personally came as a shock when we saw the same prize money being awarded for the 3rd time in PSL. We were expecting a lot more since PSL 4 was much better in ranking than previous seasons. Also, with other leagues coming strong, PSL should increase the prize money to stay in the race. However, we have to give PCB some relaxation since arranging matches in UAE costs them a fair amount. With PSL 5 expected to be held in Pakistan throughout, we are expecting a much better prize money and playing environment.
