The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has taken a massive decision regarding their players’ annual contracts. The board has decided to cut down on players’ salaries due to poor performance in world cricket. The board will sign a new deal with the cricketers soon. The most interesting part is that the players have agreed to sign the deal and their assent has been finalized.
The Bangladesh board has followed this system to improve players’ performance on the field. The Tigers’ players will now be remunerated per match. If a player has high points, he will receive a better salary. If a player underperforms, his salary will be reduced.
BCB To Determine Players’ Salary Per Match:
The points system has been introduced by the board to improve the players’ dedication towards every game they play. Eight points have been levied for each Test held before 2017 and 10 points for each Test held in 2018 and 2019.
Additionally, four points have been added to the players’ name per ODI and three points per Twenty20 till 2017.
According to this system, Mushfiqur Rahim is the player with the highest points.
Rahim has 574 Test points and 1172 points in limited-overs cricket. Rahim, along with Tamim Iqbal and Mahmudullah Riyad are in the best category. Tamim and Riyad will get a monthly salary of Tk. 6 lakh. Being the highest point holder, Mushfiqur Rahim will get more than them. He will get Tk. 6.2 lakh.
Besides, Mominul Haque, Liton Das, Mehedy Hasan and Rubel Hossain have a monthly salary of 3 lakh Takas; Taijul Islam and Mustafizur Rahman two-and-a-half lakh Tk; Imrul Kayes 2 lakh and Mohammad Mithun are expected to get a monthly salary of Tk. 1.75 lakh. In the last contract, Mustafiz’s remuneration was Tk. 3 lakh.
