Actually, the average ipl player makes more than a million more than the average mlb player. https://www.statista.com/statistics/675120/average-sports-salaries-by-league/

I am very confused where this data comes from. The most well paid IPL players I can find are making about 2 mil USD annually.

Because that isn’t annual pay. IPL players are getting paid that for just 2 months of their time per year. Cricketers in general are contracted to multiple leagues over the period of an year, aside from their own international contracts.

That’s because there are ten teams. Look at the list, MLB is 2nd to the nfl.
