IPL 2018: 4 Chennai Super Kings players who should step up their game before the playoffs

#2 Suresh Raina

Raina is the only player in the history of IPL to score 350+ runs in ten consecutive seasons

Apart from MSD, Suresh Raina is the only other player to be associated with the CSK franchise since the inception of IPL. CSK retained the southpaw ahead of the 2018 auction. His retention showed the faith that the franchise had on him.

Raina is the only player in the history of IPL to score 350+ runs in ten consecutive seasons. In the ongoing season, Raina had scored 315 runs from 11 games with three 50’s. These numbers can be perfect for any batsman. But for a player like Raina, it is well below his standards. Surprisingly, he is currently in the 18th position in the runs chart.

With only a couple of games left before the playoffs, it is the right time for the left-hander to regain his consistency and batting prowess.
