Faf du Plessis Net Worth 2024

Faf du Plessis is a South African professional cricketer who currently plays for the Indian Premier League (IPL) side Royal Challengers Bangalore. At 39 years old, the seasoned player has a wealth of experience and a substantial legacy in the world of cricket, marked by numerous accolades and remarkable performances across formats. This article talks about Faf du Plessis’ net worth and the salary he earns while representing Indian Premier League side Royal Challengers Bangalore.

What Is Faf du Plessis’ Net Worth?

Faf du Plessis has represented various domestic teams in his long and illustrious career. He started his domestic career by representing the Northerns. He started playing for them in the 2003/04 season and his last appearance for them came in the 2011/12 season. Other domestic teams he has represented outside India are Lancashire, Titans, Paarl Rocks, Joburg Super Kings, and Texas Super Kings.

The South African’s IPL career began when he was bought by the Chennai Super Kings in 2011. His debut in the league, however, came in the 2012 season after which he started establishing himself as a legend. He stayed with them till the franchise was banned for two years, i.e., the 2016 and 2017 seasons. Faf du Plessis was one of the five players drafted by the Rising Pune Supergiants and he spent the next two seasons representing them in the league.

Faf du Plessis, however, was bought back by the Chennai Super Kings in the 2018 mega auction. He represented them for many seasons in the league and turned into one of their star players. However, CSK decided against retaining him when the next auction came around. They let the star go back into the auction ahead of the IPL 2022 mega auction, maybe thinking they would be able to buy him back in the auction but that is not how it panned out.

Chennai Super Kings initiated the bidding for du Plessis in the auction and Royal Challengers Bangalore joined in. CSK decided to back out with their last bid being ₹3.2 Crore. RCB thought they had managed to get their player cheap but that’s when Delhi Capitals started bidding. They went toe-to-toe against RCB but backed out after RCB bid ₹7 Crore for the player. This sealed the deal, and the South African star joined Royal Challengers Bangalore ahead of the 2022 IPL season.

Faf du Plessis has represented Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League since the 2022 season. He was also given the captaincy in the 2022 season and has served as the Franchise’s captain since. The player has had some highly lucrative contracts with the various IPL teams throughout his career and it is through these contracts and various brand endorsements that the batsman has been able to build a net worth of around ₹105 Crore.

However, his last international appearance in white ball cricket came on 1st December 2020 against England. It has been nearly four years since then and there have been no signs of Faf du Plessis returning to the South African team.
