Suresh Raina is mainly known for his aggressive playing style as he tries his best to hammer every ball outside the stadium.

Punjab posted the huge target of 227 runs on the board for CSK with the help of Virender Sehwag’s blistering knock of 122. As it was a do or die match for the men in yellow, Raina tried his best to pull off a win.
