Ben Stokes, a prominent cricketer, has decided to make himself unavailable for the IPL 2024 season in order to manage his workload and fitness ahead of England's Test tour of India and the T20 World Cup in June. This decision means he will forgo a significant seven-figure pay packet. Stokes' commitment to prioritizing his fitness and workload has led to his release by CSK, and he is also undergoing knee surgery to ensure his fitness for England's upcoming Test series in India.
