In reply to Larr Pullo
that's why he's worth all the 700k pounds contract
btw Malik needed 2 off 2
and he blew it
only Pakistan
Why Akmal bat that super over?
In reply to doosra
With Pak you always have to take a sidelong glance at their tactics...
In reply to doosra

In reply to matchstick

In reply to doosra
Damn!! Nice cheese. Did not know ECB pays so much.
In reply to matchstick
yes they do. present contracts are 700k plus match fees (which is not too shabby and especially the number of tests they play)
Jordan have everybody in the Caribbean happy now,thank God for small mercies,is is ongle Pakistan.
In reply to matchstick
you paid too much attention to the guy here telling you WI players are among the highest paid cricketers!
In reply to doosra
Of course you are aware that Chris Jordan no longer has a central contract and not all contracts are the same?
Currently he has only his county salary plus match fees.
Last years contracts were 650,000 pounds

I also post on an English cricket messageboard, and so many of them think Jordan is rubbish, despite his heroics in the SuperOver....
In reply to doublecentury
i am aware. if you read you will see
still does not subtract from the fact that he had a 650k last year
In reply to mikesiva
Maybe because Jordan is not one of their own?
He is no giant but he is not rubbish either.
In reply to mikesiva
Chris time to come back home.
In reply to nick2020
chris made more in the UK in 2014/2015 than he'd make in the wi for life
way to go
In reply to doosra
It would appear that the retainers are considerably more than the county salaries so losing your contract can be a massive pay cut.nevertheless the county salary provides some security ( far more than a regional wicb retainer)
The West Indies contracts are substantially lower so it's not surprising that our professionals have to play overseas( uk,ipl,big bash etc) to try to make a living.
One should also realize that at 24 CJ was released by surrey and is grateful that Sussex picked him up. And they seem to have made a real cricketer of him. Not the best ,but a quick and hostile bowler. A useful number eight batsman. And possibly the best slip fielder in the world.
It would be plain silly not to recognize his development and that he could walk into the West Indies team, not that he would want to.his development would never have happened had he been confined to Barbados.
In reply to doublecentury
Top county pros make about 50k all year so it's a 10folds cut but yes it's security and the ground to build on again.
At 24 cj is set
