England Test captain Stokes skipped last year’s IPL but was sold to Chennai Super Kings for a staggering $1.96 million in December’s auction.
The IPL final is scheduled on May 28, while England host Ireland in a one-off test at the Lord’s from June 1 and begin their home Ashes campaign in Edgbaston on June 16.
“Yes, I’ll play,” Stokes said of the Ireland match.
“I’ll be making sure that I give myself enough time to get back and play that game.”
Several of his England team mates, who have been picked up by IPL sides, will also have to make a decision though Stokes hinted some of them could be allowed to miss the Ireland game.
