England players returned

In fact, the England Cricket Board had suddenly decided to call back its players in view of the T20 World Cup starting from June 2. Before the World Cup, England has to play a T20 series against Pakistan, due to which the board took this decision. Now this has created problems for many franchises including Rajasthan. Not only Butler, but the English players of teams like Kolkata Knight Riders, Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings, who have reached the playoffs or are in the race for it, have either returned or will return in a day or two.
