Chennai Super Kings’ (CSK) flamboyant number three batsman, Suresh Raina, was back donning the traditional yellows of th🍬e franchise, on Tuesday.
The explosive southpaw looked at his best while wearing his new je🌳rsey, new shoes and new pads, gearing up for his ꧂training session.
Post lockdown, ‘Chinna Thala’ was seen practising in the nets in Ghaziabad along with Rishabh Pant. A few hits down the ground went on to display𝔉 his majestic touch, showing no rust accumulated with the prolonged COVID-19 break.
‘You can’t miss determination, so Let’s get back to the practice & make thi🎐s week amazing! Smiling face with sunglassesCricket bat and ball,” Raina captioned his♊ post.

It was only a few days back when India and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain Virat Kohli shared a sneak peek of his new kit.
Both Virat and Raina have en🌸gaged in a game of cat and mouse for all-time leading run-scorer in ♐the tournament.
Currently, ‘King Kohli’ is the leading run-scorer in the IPL with as many as 5412 runs to his name in 177 games. Only a few steps behind is Raina with 5368 runs in🧜 193 games♈.
It will be interesting to see🌞 who comes out victorious in this year’s race for the all-time leading run-scorer. Kohli has represented the sa🅺me franchise since the inception of IPL in 2008. He is the only player to achieve this feat.
Also, Raina will have a point or two to prove to the selᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚectors in the national team. He has been out of favour in the Indian side since the 2018 England series.
