IPL 2023: Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bangalore emerge as experts' top picks

If you- like every other guy in India are a die-hard <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=cricket&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">cricket</a> fan, you’ve obviously nursed dreams about being a <keyword id="207918" type="POSITION" weightage="100" keywordseo="cricket-commentator">cricket commentator</keyword>, if not a <keyword id="1521" type="CITY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Cricket">cricket</keyword> player. 
 
Apart from having direct access to the player and getting his commentary heard by millions of fan worldwide, as a cricket commentator one also draws quite a hefty salary. 
 
 
 
 
 Take for example, <keyword id="7639" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Sanjay-Manjrekar">Sanjay Manjrekar</keyword>. According to the information on <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=BCCI&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">BCCI’s</a> website under <a href="http://www.bcci.tv/news/2016/bcci-news/12912/bcci-payments-above-rs-25-lacs-january-2016">BCCI payments above Rs 25 lakhs</a>, as of January 2016 he had received Rs 36,49,375 as commentator fees for the South Africa Series 2015. 
 As <keyword id="274437" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Quora">Quora</keyword> user Ashish Sirohi points out, there were 4 test matches in those series- which had 12 days of play. 
 Thus, if were to assume that <keyword id="6354756" type="CITY" weightage="100" keywordseo="BCCI">BCCI</keyword> pays a cricket commentators based on the number of working days and also assuming that he commented in all four test matches, in that case the fee comes about Rs 3, 04,00 lakhs per working day. 
 
On the other hand, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=ANIL+KUMBLE&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Anil Kumble </a>was paid Rs 39, 10,500 lakhs as fees for being a commentator in 5 ODIs and 4 Test Matches for the South Africa Series 2015. 
 
Thus, if we had to make an assumption, it would be fair to say that a cricket commentator may earn around Rs 2-2.5 lakhs per day. 
However the above amount will vary largely based on the eligibility/qualification of the commentatator in question and also from board to board.

Bengaluru, May 19 () He earned his India debut after waiting for far too long and Mayank Agarwal says batting great Rahul Dravid's motivating words helped him keep negative thoughts at bay and continue with his quest. His big moment came when he made his Test debut against Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) during the 2018/19 series. "I was getting runs you know. I got massive runs that Ranji Trophy season and for India A. I did have a word with Rahul bhai. I told him I was getting thoughts of sometimes not getting picked," Agarwal told Sanjay Manjrekar in a videocast on ESPNcricinfo. Agarwal got his international career off to a fine start with a fighting 76 against a high-quality Australian bowling attack. In 17 innings so far, he has scored 974 runs at an average of 57.29 with three centuries at the top of the order. But he had to endure a long wait to get there having performed consistently in the domestic circuit for Karnataka. That's when former India captain Dravid, doing duty as the A team coach, helped Agarwal with his wisdom. "I very clearly remember him telling me 'Mayank these are the things that are in your hands. You have worked hard, you have gotten here. You are as close as you can get. Selection is not in your hands'. "And I totally agreed with him. Theoretically you understand that but practically it's not easy. "But he put forth few things - 'What is to say that the coming October and November is not going to be different from September. If you think otherwise you will get into a negative mind frame it's you who is going to lose out and nobody else'. So I remembered that talk and that kept me going," Mayank added. "When I got the call I was elated and I called him up and thanked him." AH AH ATK ATK
