Mystery spinner Sunil Narine is the highest-paid West Indies player at the 2020 Dream 11 Indian Premier League (IPL), collecting a whopping US$1.2M.
This, according to sports website SPORTEKZ who gave an idea of the salaries of the players taking part at this year’s tournament which opened on Saturday in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates.
Narine will line-up for the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) yet again and will lead their bowling attack at this year’s tournament.
