The player contract reflects this and is completely proplayer all players are assured performancedelinked guaranteed payment, and there is no penalty clause. The extent of pay protection in the IPL far exceeds that provided by the Indian government to its employees.

Oh, they tried, plenty of times they have at quarterback, remember but the 49ers couldn't do anything about it..
