Which cricketer of Team India will earn how much?

12 issues are fixed in the agenda of this meeting. This meeting will be conducted through video conferencing. Former vice-captain Rahane and fast bowler Ishant, who are almost out of the race to make a place in the Indian team, are almost certain to be out of the list. Wicket-keeper batsman Wriddhiman Saha will also be left out of the list after he was told at the beginning of the year that he would not be selected for India again. The BCCI gives central contracts to players in four categories, which include A+ (Rs 7 crore annually), Group A (Rs 5 crore annually), Group B (Rs 3 crore annually), and Group C (Rs 1 crore annually).

Suryakumar deserves promotion

A BCCI official said, “Suryakumar is in Group C, but on the basis of his performance in the last one year, he deserves a promotion, if not Group A, then at least Group B. He is the top batsman in the current ICC T20 International rankings and is also a contender for a place in the A team. Gill now plays regularly in the two formats and would be hoping for a promotion from Group C to Group B.

Ishaan Kishan's fate will open

Batsman like Ishaan Kishan has also played many matches in both limited overs international formats in the recent past. He is almost sure to find a place in this list. Pandya was demoted to Group C in the previous list, as he did not play much cricket that season due to injury. He led the team in two T20 International series and is a contender for the regular captaincy of the T20 team. He can make a place in Group B in the upcoming list.
