Babar Azam Net Worth & Salary 2024-25: Endorsements, Career Achievements

Star Pakistani batter Babar Azam has quickly gone through the ranks, becoming the most dependable batter across formats and later taking over the captaincy. His batting performances placed him among the world’s finest, and he is also one of the highest-paid cricketers. However, the last couple of years have seen a dip in his form, drawing immense criticism, leading to him even stepping down from captaincy. The lack of runs has also impacted his financial standing, with a demotion in his central contract. 

Babar Azam’s Franchise Cricket Salary

Babar is one of the highest-paid players in the Pakistan Super League (PSL). He began his PSL stint in 2016 with Islamabad United in the Silver category, earning USD 25,000 (INR 20 lakh). The following year, he joined Karachi Kings, gradually climbing from Gold (USD 50,000) to Diamond (USD 70,000) before reaching the prestigious Platinum tier.

Between 2020 and 2022, as Karachi Kings’ captain, his salary touched USD 130,000 to USD 170,000 (INR 1 to 1.24 crore). In 2023, he moved to Peshawar Zalmi as captain, and by 2025, he was earning USD 220,000 (INR 1.88 crore) per season, making him one of PSL’s top-paid cricketers. He was also recently signed by the Sydney Sixers in the Big Bash League (BBL) 2025-26, where he was drafted in the Platinum category, fetching up to AUD 420,000 (INR 2.35 crore) for a full season.

Babar Azam’s PCB contract

The cricketer recently faced a setback in his earnings with the Pakistan Cricket Board’s (PCB) latest central contracts for 2025-26. For the first time, the PCB has not awarded its top-tier Category A contract to any player. Babar was previously in Category A and has now been demoted to Category B.

He will now earn PKR 3 million (INR 9.28 lakh) per month, a drop from his earlier PKR 4.5 million (INR 13.95 lakh). The reduction amounts to a cut of nearly INR 4.5 lakh monthly. Adding to this, reports suggest the PCB is considering scrapping the 3% revenue share clause from ICC earnings, which could further hurt player salaries. 

Endorsements

The 30-year-old has attracted a wide range of brands across various sectors. According to reports, he charges around INR 50 lakh for each endorsement. He has been seen working with brands such as Head & Shoulders, Oppo, Pepsi Pakistan, Huawei, HBL, and Gatorade, along with sports equipment brands like Gray Nicolls and CA Sports. He also represents companies in finance, technology, fashion, and lifestyle, including Bank Alfalah, JazzCash, Ufone 4G, and Alkaram Studio.

Babar Azam’s House and Car Collection

Among his prized possessions are an Audi A5, an Audi e-Tron GT gifted by his brother, a black Hyundai Sonata, and a purple Lamborghini Aventador. His garage also includes a red BAIC BJ40 Plus Jeep, an MG HS Essence, and superbikes like the Yamaha R1 and BMW RR 310.

Meanwhile, the cricketer’s residence is in Lahore’s DHA Phase 5, designed by architects Archi Cubes. He also owns a farmhouse in Lahore, which is called Azam Farm House and is reported to have property worth around INR 40 crore.
