Suresh Raina's sensational comeback to the IPL has met with an unfortunate end as Ravindra Jadeja sold him down the river during Chennai Super Kings' (CSK) game against the Delhi Capitals (DC).
Jadeja tucked the ball behind square leg and called Raina for a second after completing the first run quickly. Raina responded to his partner's call, but unluckily, Jadeja clashed at the non-striker's end with the bowler Avesh Khan.
Realizing that the second run was not on, Ravindra Jadeja, at the very last moment, sent Raina back. But it was too late as the 34-year-old was way short of his crease.
Fans slam Ravindra Jadeja for running out Suresh Raina
This is not the first time such an incident has happened involving Jadeja. The southpaw also ran Hardik Pandya out in a similar way during India's 2017 Champions Trophy final against Pakistan. It proved to be a crucial moment in that game and so could this run-out be in the ongoing contest.
CSK fans were certainly not happy with the way Jadeja refused to sacrifice his wicket and let another set batsman bear the brunt of his wrong call. Nevertheless, they also hailed Suresh Raina for his brilliant fifty. This is what they said:
Suresh Raina's return was always going to be an emotional one for many CSK fans as they missed him dearly last year. CSK finished outside the playoffs spots for the first time in their history and wanted 'Mr. IPL' back as soon as possible.
The 34-year-old did take a bit of time to get his eye in. But once he was set, Suresh Raina looked at his vintage best. His knock of 54 showed exactly what CSK were lacking last year and has shown great promise for the rest of the IPL 2021 season.
