Samarjitsinh Gaekwad, India’s richest cricketer, has a net worth exceeding ₹20,000 crore, thanks to his royal Baroda lineage, not his brief cricket career. He inherited the vast Laxmi Vilas Palace and manages 17 temple trusts. Still connected to the sport, he runs a cricket academy and holds leadership roles, uniquely blending royalty with a love for cricket.
