    IPL 2025: Key Wishes For England’s Players To Prioritise Playing For National Team, Says Knight

    By IANS News March 27, 2025 • 14:00 PM View: 704
    Indian Premier League: Former England batter Nick Knight said the reason why many players from the country aren’t showing much interest in featuring in the Indian Premier League (IPL) is because the men’s team managing director Rob Key wishes for them to prioritise playing for the national team.

    In IPL 2024, there were 18 players from England, though few of them withdrew later in the ten-team competition. In IPL 2025, Moeen Ali, Jofra Archer, Jacob Bethell, Jos Buttler, Sam Curran, Will Jacks, Liam Livingstone, Jamie Overton, Phil Salt and Reece Topley are the England players in the tournament, while Harry Brook and Brydon Carse (injury) have pulled out.

    "Rob Key, who is in charge back at the ECB, has basically tried to - and he's fairly right - encouraged his players to play as much for England (as possible). They've got a five-Test series against India. They've got an Ashes to follow. They've got multi-format players, like Harry Brook and Mark Wood - they're pretty well looked-after now. And they're going to have to be looked after.
