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

#1 Virat Kohli - Royal Challengers Bangalore

Virat Kohli

Salary – INR 17 Crore

There is absolutely no doubt that Virat Kohli is the most valuable player in world cricket at the moment. His consistency in scoring runs is second to none. The RCB management very well understands that and is ready to pay the highest salary for his services.

The second highest paid player in the Bangalore squad is the South African AB de Villiers who is paid INR 11 crore.

It is quite a paradox that even after having two of the best cricketers of the world in their squad, Royal Challengers Bangalore has never won the IPL trophy. They have always fallen short in getting the combination right and they have been overdependent on Kohli and de Villiers always in every season of IPL.

Kohli will be very much looking forward to changing that trend with a title victory in IPL 2019 as he might be feeling that he has a good team combination this time.
