In a delightful moment during the 2024 Legends League Cricket (LLC), former Indian cricketer Suresh Raina was seen playing cricket with his children, Rio and Gracia. This heartwarming interaction took place at the Lalabhai Contractor Stadium in Surat on Saturday, September 28, after Raina’s side, Toyam Hyderabad, had their game against Gujarat Greats abandoned due to rain. The video of Raina enjoying the sport with his kids captured a wholesome moment amid the competitive environment of the tournament.
Match Abandoned Due to Rain
Suresh Raina is leading Toyam Hyderabad in the ongoing LLC, but unfortunately, their game against the Shikhar Dhawan-led Gujarat Greats was called off due to rain, just like the previous match held in Surat between Konark Suryas Odisha and Manipal Tigers. This season, Toyam Hyderabad has struggled, as they currently sit at the bottom of the points table with only one point from three matches. Two of their matches were losses, and one was abandoned.
Tough Start for Toyam Hyderabad
Despite the heartwarming family moment, Toyam Hyderabad has faced a tough start in the 2024 LLC. They narrowly lost their opening game against the India Capitals by just one run and were later defeated by the Gujarat Greats, who chased down a target of 173 runs with ease. As the tournament progresses, Toyam Hyderabad will be looking to bounce back in their next fixture against the Manipal Tigers at the Maulana Azad Stadium in Jammu on October 3. Meanwhile, the Southern Super Stars continue to dominate the standings, having won all three of their matches so far.
Despite the challenges Toyam Hyderabad has faced in the 2024 Legends League Cricket, Suresh Raina’s wholesome moment with his children serves as a reminder of the joys beyond the game.
While rain and tough losses have hampered his team’s campaign, Raina’s playful interaction with Rio and Gracia brings a touch of light-heartedness to the competitive atmosphere. As Toyam Hyderabad prepares for their next match, they’ll be eager to turn their fortunes around and climb up the standings, taking inspiration from both family and the spirit of the game.
