Buttler credited Kevin Pietersen, former skipper of Australia, who advocated a separate IPL window, to pave the way for English players to participate in this rich tournament.
“The IPL has a pretty interesting history for English cricket. He clarified the documentary about Kevin Pietersen and how he wanted to be included and he faced the roadblocks.
