IPL 2025: Full List Of Coaches, Mentors, Support Staff And Their Salaries. The 2025 IPL kicked off on 22nd March, 2025. This season, we can see some renewed vigor with revamped coaching staffs for all ten teams. Among the notable ones, Andy Flower has been appointed as head coach for Royal Challengers Bengaluru, while Rahul Dravid has been appointed head coach of the Rajasthan Royals, marking his return to franchise cricket. Other notable changes in coaching include Daniel Vettori stepping in for Brian Lara at Sunrisers Hyderabad, with Hemang Badani taking over the mantle of head coach of Delhi Capitals. The strategic moves reflect emphasis on experienced leaders and technical expertise.
Coaching stalwarts Stephen Fleming (CSK), Ashish Nehra (Gujarat Titans), and Chandrakant Pandit (KKR) continue to provide their franchises stability at this time of flux in the IPL. Former cricketers like Kieron Pollard (MI), Dwayne Bravo (KKR), and Zaheer Khan (Lucknow Super Giants) have made a natural transition from playing to coaching and mentoring roles.
For their valuable contribution, franchises give them a hefty amount. Here is the full list of all teams’ coaches, mentors and their salaries.
The salary structure of the coaching staff in the IPL varies widely based on experience and previous success. The head coaches, namely Mahela Jayawardene, Daniel Vettori, and Ricky Ponting, earn salaries within the range of ₹3-4 crore per season, while assistant coaches and mentors earn salaries between ₹2-3.5 crore. Specialized coaches for batting and bowling generally are on the lower end of the salary scale, drawing funds between ₹2-3 crore. The highest pay for assistant coaches goes to CSK’s Michael Hussey and MI’s Lasith Malinga, who are famed for their compatibility to build up the players.
