Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) awarded annual central contracts to 12 cricketers this year splitting them into 4 grades. According to Wikipedia, the salaries for these four grades are $57,000 (Rs 39.59 lakhs) , $43,000 (Rs 29.87 lakhs), $28,000 (Rs 19.45 lakhs) and $14,000 (Rs 9.72 lakhs) respectively. Since Grade C and Grade D have been dissolved quite recently, it made it possible for the board to increase the salaries of the players. Only 11 players out of the 15 in the World Cup squad have a central contract and it all sums up to $455,000 (INR 3,15,87,237) per annum.
