Baseball America Top 50
This is the power of IPL.As an australian i was shocked to read this news. what do u thought my fellow aussies?
A new survey has revealed that Indian Premier League (IPL) players came in at a close second place at 48,243 pounds a week, followed by America’s Major League baseball at third with weekly wage of 35,147 pounds.
American National Basketball Association players top the league with an average yearly pay packet of 50,487 pounds a week.
According to reports, IPL ranked highly partly due to their short season. England batsman Kevin Pietersen has the most lucrative contract, with researchers estimating his 2009 deal to be worth one million pound for a maximum six weeks’ work.
English Premier League (EPL) footballers are the fourth highest paid sportsmen in the world.

IPL lasts for 8 to 9 weeks not 3 weeks and other sports leagues also have their off seasons they don’t go on for the “whole year”. Yes US sportsmen are paid in dollars and the report has only converted the same amount into the pounds currency, use some common sense please. You’re just showing your ignorance. Or maybe you’re jealous of IPL’s success?
