SUMMARY:
- Cricket could probably be compared to baseball, but there are quite a few differences. Two teams of eleven players each take turns to bat and bowl.
- The average cricketer salary varies in each country and this is causing some dispute. In Australia, for example, international male players would have started off with around 270,000 dollars per year in 2018.
- England cricketers who started out in 2017 received a salary of about 265,000 dollars per year, with the middle tier players pocketing close to 600,000 dollars and the high rollers earning just under 1 million.
- In India, the salaries of players are also divided into three tiers; Grade A, B, and C. Based on the value of each player, they sign individual contracts, with Grade A being the highest at approximately 150,000 dollars and Grade C earning 46,500.
- There is quite a huge gap between all tiers when comparing the countries. And unfortunately, not all cricketers can play for one country.
- Like many other sports, there are a few different competitions every year that don’t bind players by country, meaning they have the option of more than one contract that generates a salary.
- The current captain of the Indian Cricket team, Virat Kohli, was the only Indian, as well as the only cricket player, that was featured in the Forbes list of “The World’s Highest Paid Athletes” and earned a mind-blowing 22 million dollars in 2017 alone.
- If you are thinking of seriously taking up cricket, you should probably know that they do, in fact, work very hard for those big bucks.
- Men’s Health UK actually has a workout to “get cricket fit”.
