Even Raina's team CSK did not buy him. Now CSK has given a shocking statement about Raina.

CSK ignores Raina

Former Indian cricketer Suresh Raina did not sell among the ten franchise teams in the IPL 2022 mega auction here on Sunday. The veteran batsman, who had a base price of Rs 2 crore after going unsold on the first day, was ignored by the franchise even on the last day of the auction, which meant that Raina (Suresh Raina) went unsold in the IPL auction for the first time. Even his own team CSK did not bid on him. Suresh Raina is a very strong player.

CSK's big statement on Raina

Now CSK has given a big statement about why they did not buy Raina in the mega auction. CSK recently uploaded a video. In this video, CEO Kashi Vishwanath told about Raina that he was no longer fit in the team. This is the reason why they were not auctioned.
