Mitchell Starc a million dollar contract

          
   Left-armer Starc, who frequently led Australia in all forms of the game, including some strong batting performances, was reported to have been one of the big winners with a $1 million contract. Highest-paid Clarke earns about $2 million a season.Speaking with Michael Clarke and others we're all very excited about the Ashes and our focus is very much on that at the moment," Inverarity said. "I think our pace bowling is likely to be good. I think the wickets in England are likely to suit us more than they did in India.Former captain Ricky Ponting and veteran batsman Michael Hussey, who were on last year's list of 17, have retired. David Hussey, Michael's 35-year-old brother, was not included after the selectors' decision to concentrate on younger players.David Hussey's international career appears over. He has played 69 one-day matches and 39 Twenty20s for Australia, and held out a slight hope of making the test squad.Paceman Jackson Bird, allrounder Moises Henriques, Usman Khawaja and Steve Smith also missed out on contracts, but they remain under consideration for the Ashes and one-day selection.
