Who gets paid what in cricket
Are Indian players the world's best-paid cricketers? And where does cricket stand among other sports in terms of player remuneration?
Australia and England, not coincidentally, both have well established player bodies, but the examples of South Africa, New Zealand and West Indies are instructive. Despite being among the smaller boards in terms of revenues, the existence of SACA, NZPA and WIPA means their players are relatively well remunerated.
South Africa's top contract is worth $363,000 per year, in the Caribbean the top contract is worth $140,000, and in New Zealand it is $143,533.
This year both Jason Holder and Kane Williamson have earned over $260,000 leading their countries.
