Chennai,
15th IPL The 8 teams were allowed to retain a maximum of 4 players per cricket match. The reigning champions Chennai Super Kings, as expected, included all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja (Rs 16 crore), captain Tony (Rs 12 crore), Moin Ali (Rs 8 crore) and Rudraj Kejriwal (Rs 6 crore). Retained.
The 40-year-old Tony is likely to play in the next IPL. Looks like he will retire with the match. Except his batting is not as good as before. So Tony took his name to 2nd place in the list of players to be retained. As a result, his salary is Rs 3 crore less than last season. At the same time Jadeja has hit the ‘jackpot’.
Former India captain Robin Uthappa, who was dropped from the Chennai team, said, “Of course it was Tony who would have given priority to Jadeja. He is well aware of Jadeja’s value in the team. Jadeja is likely to be appointed captain when Tony retires. Jadeja deserves the money they provide. ‘
Another former India batsman Parthiv Patel said, ‘I think Jadeja will be paid that much on the basis of being the next captain of the Chennai team. He is an amazing player. He has also excelled in Test and one-day cricket. So I think Jadeja will take over the captaincy when it comes to Tony’s decision not to play anymore. ‘
