Suresh Raina – Before telling his numbers with the bat, let’s get across a fact that Raina never ever missed a game for Chennai Super Kings and showed up in all the 132 games franchise played. Raina, with the bat, contributed 3699 runs in 128 innings batting at a strike rate of 139.79 with an average of 34.25.
He has been the core of the team since the start as in each every edition he played for CSK, Raina crossed the 400 run mark, which is enough to tell the fact that he was the player of the team on which the success of the team relied heavily. Along with that, he also contributed with the ball as he also scalped 24 wickets with his right arm off-spin. Raina’s aggressive batting and consistency with that is something which will force anyone to keep him in the squad.
