Tbh I have no idea the amount of associate nations are getting from the ICC right now but I agree they can't expect more because the last time I heard back in 2015 or so it was like a million or so, that's a fucking joke and criminal imo.
No wonder cricket is not spreading quickly as it is supposed to be.
There are two different factors.
1. The funding for associate members were reduced from $62.5 million per year in 2007-15 cycle to $20 million per year in 2015-23 cycle.
2. The eligibility rules were changed, allowing countries to form teams with 100% foreigners. This benefitted Oman, UAE.etc, and they now receive a greater share of funds. Adversely affected countries with native players such as Nepal and Argentina. They are unable to win matches and therefore receive a smaller share of the funds.
For countries such as UAE, the decrease is not very significant. They receive almost the same amount of funds that they used to receive before 2015. But for countries fielding native players such as Kenya, Thailand, PNG and Nepal, the funds that they now receive is around 10% of what they used to get before 2015. And it is not surprising that cricket is dying in these countries.
