However, most of the top Australian players are under no obligation to play the BBL under their current central contracts. David Warner hasn’t played the same version since 2014 in this episode. The highest BBL payout from the draft to date has been Darcy Short’s USD 258,000 (AUD 370,000). And the money has been much less compared to what Australian players have been paid in the IPL. But with Indian IPL owners investing in UAE and CSA T20 leagues, BBL will need to revamp its salary structure to keep the best interest in the business.
