The above table or figures looks like satta or lottery figures and are of not importance in International cricket i.e. test/one day/T20. It is uselesss to give such figures. let Viru blast each and every ball and score in one day or test in the present form. How come Viru, Bhajji, Z Khan, Irfan, Munaf all the stars are fit during IPL. I am sure during T-20 world cup and forthcoming England series they will be either unavailable due to unjury or loose thier form

Its pure demand-supply equation. Each playing XI can have 7 Indians and 4 foreigners whereas the squad can have 20 indians and 10 foreigners.
Now typically teams go for 5 big international names and rest 5 overseas cricketers are generally the fringe players
So, for 9 teams there's a demand for 9*5 = 45 big name overseas stars and 45 overseas utility players. Now, apart from India there are 9 other ICC full members. Assuming around 20 contracted cricketets in each country, the available pool is 180
so, demand supply ratio is 90/180 = 0.5
Now for deomestic cricketers, each team needs 7 domestic cricketers in playing XI. So, total demand = 9*7 = 63
Total number of cricketers who represented India in international cricket in last 5 years = 50 at max (including one match wonders like Abhishek Nayar)
So demand supply ratio = 63/50 = 1.26
So, mathematically, a domestic cricketer is likely to be paid 2.5 times as much as an international cricketer of similar ability
Hence if you take two players of equal (perceived) quality - one domestic and one overseas, the domestic cricketer is likely to get paid way more (e.g. Virat Kohli is paid at least 1.8 million USD while AB DeVilliers is paid just 1 million USD)

Also, regarding Gayle, since he wasnt bought from auction, there is a difference between what Gayle is paid and how much money is deducted from the team's budget. Do u think Gayle would have settled for 550000 when easily any team would have spent 2 millions on him ? What RCB did is that they made Gayle brand ambassador for UB group's Whyte and Mackay for an annual contract of 2 million in addition to his IPL contract of 550000

First class record Pujara vs Rahane Matches Runs Avg Pujara 56 4130 55 odd with 14 hundreds Rahane 50 4862 68 odd with 18 hundreds
Why is Pujara for test cricket and Rahane for odos with a first class record like that?
