Raipur: Suresh Raina was a reliable batsman for Team India during his playing days. He was also a part-time bowler who was good enough for the team to rely on. But more than that, Raina’s excellence on the field helped India in most of the matches. He was also good at saving boundaries and taking tough catches.
Raina has proved that despite his retirement, his fielding skills have not suffered any damage. Raina stunned the team members with a diving catch during the match between India Legends and Australian Legends on Wednesday in the Road Safety World Series.
In the 16th over, Abhimanyu Mithun bowled Australia’s Ben Dunk, who was advancing, and Raina Kitilan returned it with a diving catch. Raina was the savior of India Legends with his brilliant performance in the field while Dunk was advancing by scoring 46 runs off 26 balls.
Raina, who announced his retirement from international cricket following Dhoni in 2020, announced his retirement from all formats of cricket this month.
Meanwhile, the India-Australia match, which was interrupted due to rain, will resume on Friday. When the game was stopped, the Australian legends were 136 runs for the loss of five wickets in 17 overs.
