Ben Stokes: England all-rounder puts himself forward for the IPL - elcosteno - 01-14-2017
England all-rounder Ben Stokes has put himself forward for the lucrative Indian Premier League.
The 25-year-old will now go into the IPL auction on 4 February.
The Twenty20 tournament runs from 5 April to 21 May, but Stokes is likely to be involved in England's one-day series against Ireland on 5 May.
"It's a good opportunity to go away and experience different competitions," said Stokes, who has played 18 T20 internationals.
