Metro Bank One Day Cup: England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) have announced that minimum starting salaries will be equalised across men’s and women’s professional domestic cricket from 2025.

The starting salaries and salary budget details have been approved by the ECB’s Professional Game Committee (PGC), which features representatives from FCCs, the Professional Cricketers’ Association (PCA) and the ECB, it said.

The move will apply both at 'Rookie' level, which is being introduced into the women’s game for the first time and which will typically be a player’s first professional contract, and at 'Senior Pro' level for players who have established themselves in first teams.
