England skipper Eoin Morgan has advised his teammates to take part in the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League, thus highlighting its importance in view of changing sphere of cricket in order to grasp experience.

Morgan said that he would be in the IPL auction this year, and hopefully he would be picked up, adding that it was very useful as cricket is changing so much at the moment, the Mirror reported.

The left hand batsman further said that it was a great experience, adding that it was a huge opportunity for not only himself but for other cricketers to put oneself under pressure and bridge the gap between their domestic game at home and the international game, the report added.

Morgan reportedly wants to see all those not involved in the Test tour to the West Indies and the early season Tests against New Zealand to try and take part in the league.
