A landmark deal has been struck to ensure New Zealand's professional women's cricketers receive the same match fees as the men.
The five year deal will mean the White Ferns and domestic women's cricketers will now get equal pay to the Black Caps and domestic men.
New Zealand Cricket chief executive David White says all parties are happy.
Under the agreement, the total number of women's domestic contracts will increase from 54 to 72, and players will be able to keep their other jobs or continue studies.
