Ashish Nehra, who has been paid an amount of Rs 19,002,600 was injured during India-Pakistan semi-final game of World Cup 2011. He missed few games for Pune Warriors India in IPL 2011 and had been compensated for the same amount.

Former India fast bowler Zaheer Khan has been paid an amount of Rs 80,48,160 as he missed Champions League 2011. He was a part of Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL 2011. Zaheer Khan was ruled out mid-way of India tour of England 2011.

Since players like KL Rahul, Murali Vijay and R Ashwin missed full IPL 2017 due to injuries, they will also be paid compensation amount soon. All the players suffered the injury while on national duty.

While KL missed T20 tournament due to a shoulder issue, Vijay had problems in his wrist. He played for India with an issue in his wrist. Later though, it also saw him missing Test series against Sri Lanka (July/ August) as well. Coming to R Ashwin, he was ruled out due to a sports hernia.

Other players like Virat Kohli, Ravindra Jadeja and Umesh Yadav also missed few games due to issues which occurred after the long home season. They are also in line to get compensation from BCCI.

The board has adopted a policy to compensate players for the amount which they miss out on when they miss IPL games; if they suffer an injury while on national duty.

This does not just motivate players to work on fitness rather playing IPL, also allows them to miss the T20 tournament in case a player thinks he is not fit and wants rest to be fit for national duty.
