MUMBAI, SEP 6
Former India batter Suresh Raina announced his retirement from all formats of cricket on Tuesday. He amassed 5615 and 1065 runs playing 226 ODIs and 78 T20Is for India, respectively.
He last appeared in IPL 2021 as he failed to get a bid in the 2022 IPL auction and went unsold. At the international level, he played his last ODI against England at Leeds in 2018.
Earlier on August 15, 2020, Raina announced his retirement from international cricket.
Recently, Suresh Raina was felicitated with the prestigious ‘Sports Icon’ award at the Maldives Sports Awards 2022 by the Government of Maldives.
Raina was nominated alongside 16 international sportspersons, including former Real Madrid and Brazil footballer Roberto Carlos, Jamaican sprinter Asafa Powell, former Sri Lankan cricket captain Sanath Jayasuriya and Dutch football legend Edgar Davids.
