A free-spirited, cherubic yet immensely skillful cricketer, Suresh Raina is one of the most recognizable names in the Indian cricketing circuit. Thanks to his all-round exploits for India and Chennai Super Kings in the IPL, Raina has carved a niche for himself as one of the nation\u2019s most underrated cricketers.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over a glorious 15-year career, Raina made himself a key part of the Indian team, especially in the limited overs formats. His aggressive batting, exceptional fielding ability and handy off-spin bowling made him a trusted charge in whichever team he represented.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The man from Ghaziabad employed an aggressive approach in his batting and few could stop him when in full flow. In 2010, Raina became the first Indian to score a century in an international T20 game, when he smashed 101 against South Africa in a T20 World Cup group game. He also became the first Indian batsman to score a century in all three formats<\/strong>. Apart from his destructive batting ability, another marked quality of Raina was his exceptional fielding ability, irrespective of his position on the cricket field.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An ultimate team-man, Raina was one of those players who put his hand up and delivered in many pressure situations for India. But, another memorable component of his journey is his love affair with the revered Chennai Super Kings franchise. Raina\u2019s consistency hit a different level when pulling on the yellow jersey, going on to not miss a single IPL game for nearly a decade when representing the MS Dhoni-led side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                RAINA AND CSK: A YELLOVE AFFAIR<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

                Raina’s venerated relationship with Chennai Super Kings is testament to the love and affection that the left-hander earned thanks to his heroic feats for the coveted franchise. Raina\u2019s legacy with the franchise, the city and its fanbase was set in stone when he was bestowed the title of \u2018Chinna Thala\u2019 (meaning \u2018Junior\/Deputy Head\u2019 [General, Leader]) <\/strong>as the second-in-command to his captain and close friend MS Dhoni. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, most importantly, the left-handed southpaw will forever be remembered as one of the most decorated Indian cricketers of all-time and as one of the nicest cricketers the game of cricket has ever seen.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
