England cricket team wicketkeeper-batsman Jose Butler has made a big statement about IPL. He has said that the England cricket team has benefited a lot due to #IPL. Not only this, but Jose Butler also said that the IPL is the best tournament after the World Cup. Butler said he was very keen to play in the IPL this season but had to be canceled due to Corona.
Jose Butler said that there is no doubt that English cricket has improved a lot due to the IPL and it has progressed. Apart from this, the cricketers playing in the IPL also benefited greatly. I was very excited to play in the IPL this year. Except for the World Cup, it is the best tournament in the world.
Jose Butler further said that the IPL is like fantasy cricket, in which many veteran players play together. When you are growing up, you want to play with such teams, which includes legendary players like Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers.
Butler said, ‘Many veteran players play in the IPL. The Bangalore team has Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers, previously also Gayle. You see these three players playing against bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah, Dale Steyn and Lasith Malinga. As a child, when you are growing up, this is how you want to play in which there is a mixture of players from all the teams. You wonder what would happen if Kohli and de Villiers play for the same team together.
Jose Butler further explained how Kevin Pietersen had demanded a separate window from England Cricket to play in the IPL, so that English players could play in this league without any hassle. Butler said that Peterson cleared the way for all of us to play in the IPL. He knew what IPL meant to budding cricketers.
