Meanwhile, former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly believes that the domestic players deserve more even after the new annual contracts. He recently quoted, “I think that is very commendable from Rahul (Johri) and the Board. And as he said I have been harping for it for the last one-and-half years, increase the money for first-class players. I would still request him (Johri) to increase a bit more, because they are first class players, a lot of them will not become Ajinkya Rahane’s and Virat Kohli’s.”
