"suresh-raina"

Chennai Super Kings will be back in action when the UAE leg of the IPL resumes on September 19 against Mumbai Indians in Dubai

Raina, who is part of the Chennai Super Kings franchise in the Indian Premier League (IPL) was invited to join the commentary during the opening game of the fifth season of the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL)

CSK posted a competitive 188 for seven, riding on fine contributions from Suresh Raina (54), Moeen Ali (36), Sam Curran (34), Ravindra Jadeja (26), and Ambati Rayudu (23).

The start-up has also managed to get Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone as one of its investors.

The presence of seasoned campaigners such as Shikhar Dhawan, Suresh Raina and Ishant Sharma will add sheen to the tournament

Bumrah turned 27, Jadeja turned 32, Nair turned 29 while Iyer and Singh are celebrating their 26th and 35th birthday respectively.

The year-long initiative will be executed by his NGO, the Gracia Raina Foundation (GRF), in collaboration with Amitabh Shah's 'Yuva Unstoppable'

Raina stressed that men have never spent much time with their families before the pandemic, which has given a chance to society to envision men as active co-parents.

Dhoni, 39, retired from international cricket in August. And Raina, 33, opted out of the present tournament due to "personal reasons".
