While confirming the signing, Reliance, owners of the Mumbai team, did not disclose the price they had offered him. A sum in the range of US $200-250,000 wouldn't be amiss considering his international record.
i hope it is closer to 250K than $200!

I think Faz Says it pretty well
I'm glad for Bravo, he's an enthusiastic, hard-working cricketer and I'm pleased to see him get some financial rewards. All I ask is that he commit himself to being back in ample time before the first Test against Australia.
In my view, Gayle, Sars & Shiv are acting in an underhand way with regard to their intentions. I suspect that, if their teams progress to the play-off of the IPL, they will make every effort to play in those games to the detriment of WI cricket. By not giving any assurances now, they hope that if their team do not make the play-offs, they can play the Australian Tests, despite it being their second choice, without having to suffer any damage to their reputation. In short, they want the cake both to be eaten and preserved.

In reply to Kurt Kurt, why don't you shut your mouth! They have already say they will represent the WI.
How you expect, Capt, Vice C, Former Capt, and Former Acting Capt to desert their team for the IPL.
They already said WI first, what else you want?

They've said nothing of the sort.
If I'm wrong and they have, well then everything's cool, no?
