IPL 2026: The mini auction of IPL 2026 is going to be held on 16th December at the luxurious Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. The franchise retained list was released on November 15 and now it is being speculated who will go for the big money. But meanwhile a question is arising that which T20 league gives the most money to its players. Let us know where IPL stands in this.

Indian Premier League

Indian Premier League is not just a cricket tournament but it is also a financial super power. Whenever it comes to players’ salaries, IPL comfortably stands at rank one. It is miles ahead of every other T20 league in the world. An IPL player earns approximately Rs 4.01 crore every season. Let us tell you that this is just an average.

Some of the biggest stars take home exorbitant amounts of money, often exceeding Rs 16 crore in a single season. This limit increases even more in some special cases during mini auction. Which proves that IPL is not competing with other leagues but other leagues are competing with IPL.

ILT20 and SA20

After IPL, International League T20 in UAE tries to maintain the money race. Here the players get an average salary of around Rs 1.15 crore. If we talk about South Africa’s SA20, a salary of Rs 1.01 crore is given in this league.

Big Bash League and some other leagues

Australia’s Big Bash League and England’s The Hundred are also included in this list. The average salary in both these leagues is around Rs 62 lakh. If we talk about Pakistan’s PSL, the average earning of a player in this league is around Rs 44 lakh. Due to the difference in sponsorship limits and market size, the financial valuation of Pakistan’s PSL still lags behind.

IPL dominance

Apart from being the richest league in the entire cricket world, IPL also redefines economics. From broadcasting rights and sponsorship deals to player auction and franchise value, the scale of IPL is huge and unmatched. No other league comes close to providing player wealth, global viewership and commercial pull like the IPL.

Following reports of irregularities, match cancellations and non-payment of payments in the private T20 cricket league Indian Heaven Premier League (IHPL) in Srinagar, the police have registered a case and started investigation. A top police officer said that an FIR has been registered under relevant sections of the law, and the investigation is underway. Let us tell you that the organization of this league started on October 25 at Bakshi Stadium in Srinagar. The names of many big players like Chris Gayle and Praveen Kumar were included in this.

Players and service providers associated with the league alleged that they did not receive promised payments and were refused entry to the stadium due to “technical difficulties”. Some people also claimed that they were asked to vacate the hotel rooms.

Officials said, “We have received several complaints and have started investigation based on the complaints. But, it is too early to say anything as this was not an official league, but a privately organized league.”

The IHPL included many local and international cricketers, but it was neither recognized by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) nor the Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association (JKCA), raising questions about its validity.

Chris Gayle played 3 matches

The names of many big players were associated with this league, in which the names of former West Indies cricketer Chris Gayle and former Indian fast bowler Praveen Kumar were big. Thisara Perera of Sri Lanka, Richard Levi of South Africa and Shoaib Muhammad of Pakistan origin were also included in this league for a short time.

Chris Gayle played 3 matches in this, Perera played only one match. However, it cannot be said whether the organizers have also run away with Chris Gayle’s money or his payment had already been made.

Australia’s Pat Cummins and Travis Head have rejected the offer to leave Australian cricket and play full-time in foreign T20 leagues. It is reported that an IPL team had offered them a deal worth 10 million Australian dollars for a year, but both have given priority to the national team. In fact, a report in an Australian newspaper Sydney Morning Herald revealed that both Cummins and Head have rejected the offer.

Australia’s top cricketers get 1.5 million US dollars a year i.e. about Rs 13.3 crore. At the same time, the amount that Cummins receives due to captaincy stipend is 3 million dollars. Cummins and Head are also counted among the most expensive players of IPL. For the 2025 season, Cummins got a salary of Rs 18 crore and Head got a salary of Rs 14 crore.

BBL will be privatized!

In the same report, it was also claimed that talks are going on with state cricket associations and players for the privatization of Big Bash League (BBL). It was told that the deal offered to Cummins and Head is being seen as an example of bringing change in international cricket, so that private investment can be invited in BBL.

With the arrival of investment, the salaries of the players will increase. Earlier in 2023, England fast bowler Joffra Archer was offered a deal of $7.7 million by Mumbai Indians. For this he would have to leave international cricket and play for MI. But Archer rejected that offer.

It was this year when South Africa’s ace wicket-keeper batsman Heinrich Klaasen retired from international cricket. Although he is still playing in T20 leagues.

Cricket Leagues in India: The Indian Premier League has established a different status not only in India but in the whole world. IPL is the richest league in the world, but can any other similar league be organized in India? If someone wants to organize a franchise T20 league in India, can he have to take permission or can such a tournament be organized without any permission. Here you will get answers to these questions.

Many states in India have started their franchise leagues on the lines of IPL. Whether it is about Tamil Nadu Premier League, Delhi Premier League or Maharashtra Premier League. If the Cricket League starts in the name of any state or city in India, its organizers have to get permission from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). Let us tell you that Bengal Pro T20 League and Madhya Pradesh T20 League have also started in India. At the same time, Pondicherry T20 League started in 2024, permission was also taken from BCCI for that.

Is the rule different to get legends league?

The craze of legends league cricket has also increased in India, in which cricketers who have retired from international cricket participate. Since retired cricketers do not have any contract with BCCI, BCCI is not required for organizing Legends League. In the recent past, such reports have come out that the IPL Legends League can be started, but so far no official confirmation has been made on it. Let us know that in the Legends League to be held in India, veterans like Yuvraj Singh, Irfan Pathan, Suresh Raina and Yusuf Pathan have been seen playing.

Saudi T20 League: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has moved towards destroying a mega project of Saudi Arabia. In fact, the BCCI has joined hands with the ECB (England and Wales Cricket Board) and the matter is related to the Saudi T20 League, which is expected to invest more than Rs 3,000 crore. It is now reported that the Cricket Board of India and England will not show the Saudi T20 League.

According to the British newspaper The Guardian, after the meeting held during the World Test Championship final match played at Lord’s, the BCCI and ECB have agreed to protest against the Saudi T20 League. It has been agreed between the Cricket Board of the two countries that they will not issue NOC (No Objection Certificate) to their players to play in this new league. Also, both boards have pressurized the Saudi T20 League not to support.

According to this report, Cricket Australia (CA) is focusing on earning profits with the investors of Saudi. The CA support may not have much impact on the Saudi T20 League as the brand value of the IPL is more than 12 billion US dollars, while ECB is going to make a bumper profit of about 700 million US dollars after selling 49 percent stake in the teams in ‘The Hundred League’.

Cricket South Africa (CSA) is also in profit, which gave ownership of the franchisees to the IPL teams 3 years ago. With this deal, CSA was said to have a profit of about 136 million US dollars. According to the news, Saudi Arabia investors are going to invest about Rs 3,442 crore in the Saudi T20 League.
