Abbas told the media in Lahore that if Pakistani players were included in the IPL, "it would raise the importance and status of the league".
The former Pakistan captain will be flying to Bangalore this week to watch the final of the IPL on the invitation of the new BCCI president Anurag Thakur.
Abbas also called for the revival of bilateral cricket ties between Pakistan and India. "I have accepted the invitation (to watch the IPL final) and it is a good opportunity for me to again highlight the importance of resuming bilateral cricket ties although they are obviously subject to government clearances," he said.
