Once a legend of the tournament, veteran batsman Suresh Raina has gone unsold in the ongoing IPL 2022 mega auction going on in Bengaluru today. Raina was last part of Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2021 and had below-par returns.

Raina had entered the auction at a reserve price of INR 2 crore. However, with no cricket under his belt since IPL 2021, no franchises showed any interest in the veteran batsman at the auction room.

Meanwhile, the cricketer fraternity and fans were certainly unhappy to see their favourite cricketer go unsold in the IPL 2022 mega auction.

Here are some reactions:

Suresh Raina had also been an integral part of CSK over the years. Raina joined CSK in the debut edition in IPL 2008 and was part of the franchise till the 2021 season. However, when CSK was banned in the 2016 and 2017 seasons, Raina played for Gujarat Lions.

He is one of the leading run-scorers in the history of the tournament. The left-handed batsman has scored 5528 runs in 205 IPL games and is the 4th leading run-getter in the tournament currently. The 35-yar-old has also scored a century and 39 fifties in the tournament.

Suresh Raina grabbed the limelight when he slammed 421 runs in IPL 2008. He returned with another good sho in the next season, smashing 434 runs. Till the 2014 season, Raina always crossed the 400-run mark while representing CSK.

However, there is still a chance that he might be called back in the accelerated auction if any franchise shows interest on him.
