Chennai Super Kings' batsman Suresh Raina has withdrawn from the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League. The official Twitter profile of CSK confirmed the development.
"Suresh Raina has returned to India for personal reasons and will be unavailable for the remainder of the IPL season. Chennai Super Kings offers complete support to Suresh and his family during this time," CSK wrote.Raina has been one of the key members of the CSK franchise over the years. The left-handed batsman is the second-highest run-scorer in the history of the Indian Premier League.
Earlier on Friday, CSK were dealt with another blow when the members of the franchise tested positive for COVID-19.
Raina had announced his international retirement on August 15 alongside CSK captain and long-time international teammate Mahendra Singh Dhoni. The duo was expected to return to action together in the upcoming edition of the tournament.
