Babar Azam will play in BBL, but after listening to salary you will also say – unaccounted players are also rich in IPL

Babar Azam: Pakistan’s star batsman Babar Azam has been signed by Sydney Sixers for Australia’s Big Bash League 2025 (BBL 2025). But more discussion is being done about their salary.

Actually, the amount that Babur is going to receive in BBL is less than the salary of many unknown Indian players playing in IPL. In such a situation, the same question is arising – is Babur’s value now less than the youth of IPL?

The maximum salary of foreign players in the Big Bash League is fixed at $ 4,20,000 Australian dollars (about Rs 2.35 crore). However, according to sources, Sydney Sixers is giving a slightly less salary to Babar Azam instead of this full amount.

The reason for this may also be that Babur is currently not part of Pakistan’s T20 team and his performance has seen fluctuations in recent months. Also, their availability in foreign leagues and the policy of board can also become a challenge for franchises.

IPL Babur’s earnings are less than the unconnected player

Babar Azam is named among the largest cricket stars in Pakistan. But surprisingly, his BBL salary is less than an uncapulated Indian player of the Indian Premier League (IPL).

For example, Punjab Kings (IPL 2025) have bought a young player named Priyansh Arya for Rs 3.5 crore in IPL 2025 (IPL 2025), while he has not played any international match for India yet.

Name big but price low,

Babar Azam’s record has been excellent in T20 cricket. He is counted among the most trusted and successful batsmen of Pakistan Super League (PSL). Despite this, the amount offered to them in BBL like International T20 League is much lower than the IPL.

This also raises the question whether IPL has become a gold opportunity for players, where markets and possibilities are more important than experience. This is the reason why uncapricated players are also being sold in crores, while foreign stars get limited salary.

One thing becomes clear from this whole matter that there is a big difference between the salary structure between the IPL and BBL. While franchisees in IPL are also ready to spend crores on young and unkapped players, in BBL, superstars like Babar Azam also get limited amount.
