Pat Cummins offered massive 12m contract extension by Cricket Australia

The proposed deal would increase Cummins’ earnings by roughly AUD 1 million annually, making him one of the highest-paid athletes in the sport. Sources claim the extension includes significantly more guaranteed money than the current average men’s central contract.

This move comes amid growing concerns over the financial pull of franchise cricket, though the captain previously rejected a similar offer last year. CA head of cricket James Allsopp emphasized the need to reward players generating the most commercial value to secure their commitment for the demanding upcoming schedule. piekny-pies.pl
