9. AB de Villiers
The former South African was considered the most destructive batsman of his time and virtually topped all three formats of the game. He also played and skippered the Royal Challengers Bangalore team in the Indian Premier League. De Villiers reportedly earns a net annual income of $3 million, that’s a cool 140 per cent hike over the last few years. So, it’s small surprise that de Villiers is worth $20 million and is among the richest cricketers in the world and is ranked 9th.
