Jos Buttler to miss remaining IPL 2024 matches after leaving Rajasthan Royals

England T20I captain Jos Buttler has left the Rajasthan Royals and will not be available for the last two matches of the league season and the play-offs. Rajasthan are almost through to the next round of the Indian Premier League 2024 having won 8-8.

Buttler will lead England into the upcoming T20I series against Pakistan. Other England players are also expected to leave their IPL franchises to take part in the matches leading up to the ICC T20 World Cup 2024.

Rajasthan uploaded a video of Buttler's departure with an emotional song playing in the background. The right-handed batsman met the officials and players before bidding them farewell and asked for a face time with the IPL trophy.

After a slow start, Jos returned to form in the 17th season with two hundreds. He won key matches for the 2008 champions. The management used him as an impact player, but he missed a few matches through injury.

Buttler is one of the most consistent players in T20 cricket and his absence will be felt. According to a report in ESPNcricinfo, the Board of Control for Cricket in India had attempted to negotiate with the England and Wales Cricket Board over the availability of their national players. However, it appears that the talks didn't yield any results.
