Raina last turned out for the Indian team back in 2018 against England, and since then, the southpaw has only featured in the Indian Premier League for the Chennai Super Kings.
Suresh Raina made his Indian cricket team debut in 2005
Having played almost the whole of his career under the captaincy of MS Dhoni, Raina has fallen out of favour ever since Dhoni stepped down from the Indian cricket team captaincy. And, the southpaw claimed that having to go under the knife back in 2018 was a huge call for him to take.
One of the most stylish batsmen in Indian cricket history, Raina was one of the batting mainstays in the side since his debut back in 2005 and since then, he has played 18 Tests, 226 ODIs and 78 T20Is for the national side.
The batting all-rounder has played an imperative role for CSK in the IPL, and he is also the second highest run-getter in the IPL with 5368 runs from 193 matches.
With form on his side and complete backing from his teammates, one might not want to label Raina’s hopes of wanting to make a comeback as a far-fetched dream.
