Yeah not only was Sehwag's contract worth( 2 million versus 100k) a lot more,but Bopara was initially interested in playing the IPL but no one picked him up in the initial auction.No, true. I'd be surprised if there were any specific stipulations about denying surgery in it tho.
Say what you like about Ravi Bopara (and plenty have) but he turned down the IPL's $s to play county cricket in May. Obviously I don't know their respective financial situations, but would imagine Sehwag's net worth has an extra couple of zeros on the end of it.
Only later he rejected a contract worth less with the Rajasthan Royals to play county cricket.
