The amount of money these blokes earn, they don't need to worry about getting a professional job after cricket.
I understand that the top 1% such as Kohli, Steve Smith, Warner et al get paid more in one year than 99% of people earn in a lifetime, but with stats in several other professional sports such as 60% of NBA and 78% of NFL players going broke within a few years after retirement, factors such as poor financial choices post-retirement, failed investments, major health problems or a divorce/alimony/child support can severely financially dent anyone at the least expected moment.
