Sunil Gavaskar Slams BCCI Pay Structure, Calls Out 'Luck' Factor In Big-Money IPL

By our Special Correspondent

Legendary former India cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has called out the fee structure in place in Indian domestic cricket, lamenting the fact that several hard-working Indian cricketers often miss out on a big paycheck despite years of success at the Ranji Trophy level. On the same note, Gavaskar pointed out that many uncapped Indian players often make a big buck after being bought in the Indian Premier League (IPL) auction, despite not deserving it as much as those who do the hard yards in Ranji Trophy. Gavaskar has urged the BCCI to reconsider its pay structure for domestic cricket, and increase the incentive to pay it.
