Mahendra Singh Dhoni becomes the richest cricketer - Forbes 2012


The popular US magazine FORBES has listed Indian Cricket team skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni as the richest cricketer in the world for the year 2012. Dhoni stays at the  31st position on the list of 100 athletes that was released on Monday, June 18th 2012. The surprising fact about the list is Dhoni nearly double ahead in rank of his fellow cricketer Sachin Tendulkar (who was previously richest) who grabbed the position of 78.
The intersting part about the list is Dhoni is far ahead in the earning compared to Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar, England's professional footballer Wayne Rooney, Olympian Record Holder and Gold Medalist Usain Bolt, tennis number one Novak Djokovic. And further Dhoni's earning from endorsements is 4 milllion greater than that of Argentinian footballer Lionel Messi who stands at number 11.

During his captaincy, India won the first T20 world cup and the One day World Cup. And besides, it was also during the captaincy of Dhoni, the IPL team Chennai Super Kings  won the third and fourth version of the IPL. These events grew the fame of Dhoni instantly and he gradually turned out to be a youth icon as well as impressive Indian cricketer/skipper. As per believing the professional cricket pundits, Dhoni's income graph is increasing at an amazing pace as he married Sakshi Singh Rawat, who turned out be a lucky charm for him.
 MS Dhoni endorses many commercial brands like Reebok, Pepsico, Exide, Videocon , TVS motors, Boost, Aircel Communications, etc. Majority of his earning is contributed from the commercial endorsements.

Salary/Winnings
