IPL 2019: Highest paid player from each of the 8 teams

#4 Rishabh Pant - Delhi Capitals

Rishabh Pant

Salary – INR 15 Crore

Rishabh Pant is the highest paid player in the Delhi Capitals squad. The dynamic wicket-keeper batsman has improved considerably well in his game over the last few years he came onto the scene.

From a flamboyant batsman who can singlehandedly change the fate of the game with his stroke-making ability, Pant has become better in judgment and more temperamental to the game of cricket.

Delhi Capitals primarily has had a young squad and has always promoted youth over experience policy in their team selections. The fact remains that the salary of Shikhar Dhawan (INR 5.2 Crore was paid last season) in IPL 2019 is not disclosed.

Since Dhawan left Sunrisers owing to discussions over higher pay, it is safe to assume that he will be paid above INR 5.2 crore salary but is unlikely to cross the 15-crore mark. But since the figures are not out in the open, Pant is officially the highest paid Delhi Capitals player in IPL 2019.

With some terrific performances in the Australian tour, Rishabh pant will now be looking forward to making the IPL 2019 season count and stake a claim to the World Cup 2019 Squad.
