Mumbai: With just a month to go before the start of the IPL 2022 season, Suresh Raina is making waves on social media again. Raina, who has been a loyal midfielder of the Chennai Super Kings for a long time since 2008, has been criticized by the team management for disappointing the team management after he was dropped from the mega star auction this time.
With fans finally agreeing with the team management’s decision to drop Raina, who played a crucial role in Chennai’s achievements with 5528 runs in 205 IPL matches, the outcry for ‘Chinnathala’ has somehow gotten worse.
But now that the Gujarat Titans’ opening batsman Jason Roy has withdrawn from the IPL to spend more time with his family, a lot of fans on social media are asking the franchise to replace Suresh Raina with Roy.
Suresh Raina was the captain of the Gujarat Lions franchise that was part of the IPL for the 2016–17 seasons. Raina has only played for a team other than Chennai in these two seasons.
Raina, who is also a veteran Gujarat-loving veteran, is expected to join the team, according to fans. According to some national media reports, Gujarat is in the process of recruiting Raina.
