Former Indian player Suresh Raina on Tuesday announced his retirement from all formats of cricket. It is important to note that the left-hander has taken a break from international cricket in 2020 and now he has decided to bid on all types of cricket. Raina announced his decision on Twitter and he thanked the likes of Chennai Super Kings, Rajeev Shukla, BCCI and the Uttar Pradesh Cricket Association.

Sharing on Twitter, Raina wrote: “It is an honor to represent my country and my state UP. I announce my retirement from all formats of Cricket. I would like to thank you @BCCI, @UPCACricket, @ChennaiIPL, @ShuklaRajiv sir and all my fans for their support and unwavering belief in my abilities,” Raina tweeted.

Earlier, Raina’s decision to retire from international cricket in 2020 came minutes after Dhoni said “pretend I’m retired” on his Instagram page. “So lovely to play with you, @mahi7781. With a heart filled with pride, I choose to join you on this journey. Thank you India. Jai Hind,” Raina posted on her Instagram page.

The 35-year-old is one of the few who have scored centuries across formats and he has played 18 Tests, 226 ODIs and 78 T20 Internationals with nearly 8000 international runs.

Raina’s best moment in international cricket was the crucial undefeated hit in a tough World Cup quarter-final against Australia in the winning campaign in 2011.

The left-hander was a key member of the Chennai Super Kings until the 2021 edition of the tournament, but the male player failed to sell in the pre-season 2022 auction.
