Exact salaries for each player is not known. However, most cricket boards have a retainer fee for their top players which they are paid yearly plus any winnings from man of the matches or match/series wins. These retainers and match salaries vary widely. For instance, it has been published that the Australian cricket side will each take home roughly $500,000US per year thanks to the retainer contracts and match winnings over a year. Another example is the West Indian players who can earn upwards of $8,000US per Test and $3,000US per ODI based on their contracts and number of games played.
Sachin Tendulkar is rumoured to have an annual salary in excess of $15 million US thanks to his salary and endorsement deals.
Hope this helps.
