Earnings of top 10 wealthiest Indian Cricketers of 2018

#3 Sachin Tendulkar- ₹ 80 crore

Sachin Tendulkar

The GOD of cricket has retired from the gentleman's game but not from the commercial pitch. Sachin was the first Indian sportsperson to cross the ₹ 100 crore earnings mark and once the highest-earning sports celebrity in the country. He still holds 3rd place in the list of top 10. The little master's annual gross revenue saw a slim decline from ₹ 82.5 crores in 2017 to ₹ 80 crores in 2018. He also slipped to 9th position in the list of top 100 celebrities.

Sachin was signed by the Apollo Tyres as brand ambassador in 2018. The deal proved he is still one of the most sought after names in the Indian brand market. He was also involved in BMW's M5 and 6 series GT car launch. Some of his own initiatives such as Sachin Quiz app and Middlesex Cricket Academy also contributed a fair share of income. The 45-year-old also gains profit through his investment in Sports franchises and Hotels.
