India's veteran paceman Ishant Sharma's Indian Premier League career got a new lease of life after he was signed by the Delhi Capitals ahead of the 2019 season. While the talented bowler has emerged to be a workhorse for the Indian cricket team when it comes to Test matches, he has not been able to establish himself as a mainstay in white-ball cricket. He will be keen to come back in the reckoning for limited-overs cricket as well with an inspiring performance in the 14th edition of the cash-rich league. Here we take a look at the Ishant Sharma IPL 2021 contract and the Ishant Sharma IPL salary details ahead of the tournament. 

Ishant Sharma IPL salary: A look at the player's compensation over the years 

The lanky pacer has been a part of the Indian Premier League right from the inaugural season. He was picked up by the Kolkata Knight Riders franchise in the first-ever IPL auction for a whopping ₹3.80 crore. It is worth mentioning that Ishant Sharma's first IPL salary was also higher than former India opening batsman Virender Sehwag as the batsman was paid ₹3.30 crore for leading the Delhi-based franchise. 

Ishant Sharma pocketed ₹3.8 crore per season during his first three years in the cash-rich league. The player was a part of the Deccan Chargers for the following two seasons and was paid ₹2.07 crore per season by the franchise. He was also a part of the side in 2013 when the franchise was rechristened into Sunrisers Hyderabad. He got a salary hike in the following two seasons as he was paid ₹2.6 crore in 2014 and 2015 by SRH.

The franchise parted ways with the cricketer ahead of the 2016 season, and Sharma was then signed by the Rising Pune Supergiant for₹3.8 crore. The fast bowler then played for the Kings XI Punjab (Punjab Kings) in the 2017 season and was paid ₹2 crore for the same. He surprisingly went unsold in the following IPL auction. The seasoned campaigner was scalped by Delhi Capitals for ₹1.10 crore in 2019 and has been a part of the franchise ever since. The Ishant Sharma IPL 2021 salary is set at ₹ 1.10 crore as he was retained by DC ahead of the 14th season. The total Ishant Sharma salary comes up to ₹31.91 crore.

Ishant Sharma net worth details 

Reports from CA Knowledge suggest that the Ishant Sharma net worth is estimated to be around ₹110 crore. The aforementioned figure includes the compensation he receives for representing the Indian cricket team in international cricket. Moreover, the player also has pocked a handsome salary in the Indian Premier League over the years. The cricketer also has had several brand associations in the past and he is believed to charge a heft paycheck for the same. 

Ishant Sharma stats in IPL 

After having played 90 matches in the T20 competition, the bowler has 72 wickets to his name. Sharma has a decent economy rate of 8.09. He could play only a single fixture in the previous edition of the league and was ruled out of the competition after sustaining a left internal oblique muscle tear in his rib cage.
