IPL 2022: Suresh Raina unlikely to be retained- One of the vital cogs of CSK’s success, Raina failed to live up to the mark in IPL 2021. He failed in a number of innings that CSK ran out of patience and included Robin Uthappa who grabbed the spot with both hands. The left-hander finished the season with 160 runs from 12 matches at an average of 17+. He received a salary worth Rs 11 crore during the last 4 IPL seasons. Moeen Ali had replaced him at No.3 with 357 runs including an option to bowl.
CSK Retained Players IPL 2022: As per InsideSport sources, captain MS Dhoni, R Jadeja are the team’s first two picks while Orange Cap holder Ruturaj Gaikwad takes the place of third player.
The youngster had smashed 635 runs in the last season and played a pivotal role in guiding CSK to their 4th IPL trophy. He also brought up his maiden century and 4 fifties during his breakthrough season, making him an obvious choice in IPL 2022 retentions.
Meanwhile, Moeen Ali OR Sam Curran would make it to the final spot. Team has also discussed the name of Faf Du Plessis but the age of ex-South Africa captain has gone against him.
