The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is soon going to make changes in the central contract system, from which Grade A+ can be removed. According to the current system, BCCI has divided the players into four categories, which are named Grade A+, Grade A, Grade B and Grade C. If we look at the current system, there are only 4 players to whom BCCI pays the highest salary annually.

According to a media report, the selection committee led by Ajit Agarkar has suggested changes in the contract system. If such a change comes, then Indian cricketers will be divided into only A, B, C grades. There is also news of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli being kept in Grade B. Well, before such a rule comes, know here about those 4 cricketers to whom BCCI pays the highest salary as per the current system.

Only 2 players, salary equal to Rohit-Kohli

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli currently come under Grade A+ in the central contract list. BCCI gives a salary of Rs 7 crore annually to the players falling in this category. Jasprit Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja are the only two players who get the same salary as Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Jadeja and Bumrah also come under Grade A+, hence they get Rs 7 crore in a year.

How much money do Gill-Surya-Pandya get?

If we talk about India’s Test and ODI team captain Shubman Gill, he currently comes under Grade A. Players falling in this grade get Rs 5 crore a year. All-rounder Hardik Pandya also comes in this grade, hence he also gets a salary of Rs 5 crore annually. But Indian T20 team captain Suryakumar Yadav is in Grade B, hence BCCI provides him an amount of Rs 3 crore annually.

Indian cricket is in a period when it has different captains for all three formats. The ODI captaincy is currently with Rohit Sharma, last year Suryakumar Yadav was appointed as T20 captain and this year Shubman Gill has become the new Test captain. After landing on the field, the captain has to take more tension than other players, he has to decide how to use the bowlers and when to set up how many aggressive fielding to be used. Does this mean that the captain gets more Indian Cricketers Salary than other players? Here you will get the answer to this question.

Does the captain get more salary?

Does the captain get more salary? The direct answer to this question is ‘no’. In fact, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has divided the salary system of cricketers into four grades. Grade A+, Grade A, Grade B and Grade C, the players under them get a tank in crores of rupees. Grade A+ with 7 crores annually, grade A players 5 crores a year, players under Grade B take 3 crores in a year, while players with grade C get 1 crore rupees a year.

Through the grade system, sometimes the captain may be getting more salary. Like ODI captain Rohit Sharma comes in Grade A+, so his annual salary is Rs 7 crore. As a captain, he will be getting more conflict than most of the players of the ODI team. Such Test captains come in grade A, so they must be earning more than players with B and C grade.

Players get match fees separately

Indian cricketers get different match fees in Test, ODI and T20 matches. All other players, including the captain, get a match fee of Rs 15 lakh to play a Test match, Rs 6 lakh to play ODI and a match fee of Rs 3 lakh to play a T20 match.
