Players like Babar-Shaheen will be sold 20 times for Pant's salary, PSL chiller party in front of IPL!

IPL 2025 Mega Auction: The mega auction of IPL 2025 held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia has ended. Indian players were very popular in this auction, where bids for three players were more than Rs 20 crore. In this, Rishabh Pant was included in Lucknow Super Giants for Rs 27 crore, Shreyas Iyer was included in Punjab Kings for Rs 26.75 crore, while Venkatesh Iyer was included in his team by Kolkata Knight Riders for Rs 23.75 crore. After so much money is showered on the players, it can be guessed why this league is called a cash-rich league.

Although IPL cannot be compared with any other league, but if it is compared with Pakistan Super League (PSL), then there will be a world of difference here. Everyone knows that IPL is better than PSL in every aspect, but when it comes to money, the difference between the two is clearly visible. The Pakistani league has definitely improved in the last few years, but in comparison, the IPL is reaching new heights with every passing year.

PSL is no match for IPL

In terms of money, the dominance of IPL compared to PSL can be gauged from the fact that this time the salary of Pant, who is the most expensive seller in IPL, is not two, not four but that of big players like Babar Azam and Shaheen Afridi in PSL. Can be purchased approximately 20 times. Last time in PSL, there were salaries in different brackets for the players. Here players were divided into Platinum, Diamond, Gold, Supplementary and Silver categories.

Platinum category players in PSL get US$170,000, which is equivalent to 1.4 crore Indian rupees. Players in the following categories get 130,000, 85,000, 60,000 and 25,000 US dollars respectively. The names of top Pakistani players like Babar Azam, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Shadab Khan and Mohammad Rizwan are included in the platinum category players. Last time the title of this league was won by Islamabad United, where the team received Rs 4.13 crore as prize.
