Before starting, I would like all of you to know that we’ll
follow Forbes list about “Richest Cricketers Of 2014″.
Cricket is played big time in India and it is something like a
religion in India. So no doubt, Indians dominate this list from top to bottom.
And there are a few Australian players as well. Let’s see -
10. Yusuf Pathan -
Yes, the
power-hitter strikes big time and marks his position at the 10th spot in the
list.
Net Income – $3.9 millon. (Rs.2,42,774,805/-)
Salary – $3.3 million. Brand Endorsements – $3.6 million.
9. Ricky Ponting -
Undoubtedly he is
one of the most successful captains in history of Cricket. He sits on the 9th
spot.

4. Gautam Gambhir -

where the money flows like water.

1. Mahendra Singh Dhoni -
