India cricket team captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni is the fifth most financially valuable athlete on earth, according to Forbes Magazine.

Roger Federer, Tiger Woods, LeBron James, Phil Mickelson and Maria Sharapova succeed Dhoni, who is valued at 21 million dollars, in Forbes' list.

Swiss Tennis ace Federer and American golf ace Woods are tied at the first place valued at 46 million dollars each followed by Basketball ace LeBron James, who is valued at 27 million dollars, in the second place, Sport24 reported.



Federer and Woods earned 46 million dollars each to their names in 2013 while Dhoni managed to bag 21 million dollars.

Federer holds a record 17 Grand Slam tennis titles, while Woods has won 14 major golf titles; second only to Jack Nicklaus's record 18.

Interesting list. The Forbes list of highest-paid athletes makes for some interesting reading.

2. Cristiano Ronaldo ($80m)
3. LeBron James ($72.3m)
4. Lionel Messi ($64.7m)
5. Kobe Bryant ($61.5m)
6. Tiger Woods ($61.2m)
7. Roger Federer ($56.2m)
8. Phil Mickelson ($53.2m)
9. Rafael Nadal ($44.5m)
10. Matt Ryan ($43.8m)

Dhoni ranks 22nd on the list pulling in $30m, $26m of which are from endorsements. Dhoni is eighth overall in endorsement money, right in line with Ronaldo, Messi and Usain Bolt.

even the bureaucrats in the game get more money than the cricket players. 

the money in the game is at the MCC and English board, the Indian board, the ICC, at factory road etc.  the paper-pushers have usurped the money in cricket and they dish some out to their lackey dictator Head Coaches.

for that reason I wish cricket crashes.  if it does I will not shed a tear.  it is the most disgustingly one-sided organised game in the world

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches.
