Despite the uncertainty surrounding the IPL, Buttler expressed his excitement about being part of the T10 tournament.
"Yeah, the IPL we'll wait and see what happens, but I'm just enjoying being here," said Buttler.
"Arriving at the ground today, I've never played in the T10, but there's a great atmosphere, a great vibe around the whole tournament, so that made me feel great from the start of the day. You look around, there are some fantastic players here, and it's great to share the dressing room with guys like [Nicholas] Pooran and [Marcus] Stoinis. I'm just really excited for it."
Buttler also addressed the stiff competition from fellow England teammate Phil Salt, acknowledging Salt's excellent form over the past year and a half.
"No, no, he's been playing great. He's been in fantastic form for the last 12 or 18 months, so it's good for the England team that lots of the boys are playing well," Buttler said.
Salt had a brilliant start to his Abu Dhabi T10 campaign after he scored 51* off 19 for Team Abu Dhabi. Apart from him, Jonny Bairstow who is also featuring in the tournament for the same team played a brisk knock of 22* off 14 to take their side home against Ajman Bolts.

Buttler played a swashbuckling innings and smashed an unbeaten 62 off 24 decorated with 4 fours and 6 sixes for his side as they gunned down a massive target of 142 by 7 wickets and with two balls to spare.
