Does the IPL give more opportunities to the cricketers ?

The simple answer is 'Yes'. You can see a lot of players not heard of before the IPL actually in the reckoning for national selection. Whether the selectors go on and pick them is another argument but the is it a good platform though I'm not too happy with either the organisation or even the management. Its become a nice money making machine for the BCCI.

no , but it is giving more money to them. it is enjoyable game, but did you ever think about bowlers.
