IPL 10 could well be a turning point for Suresh Raina to resurrect and make a national comeback.

IPL 10 holds much importance in the career of Suresh Raina as the Southpaw from Ghaziabad would look to cement his place in the Indian outfit yet again with his impressive form with the bat. The recent season has not been that good for Raina as he delivered below par performance in Ranji trophy and getting dropped from Deodhar trophy was not less than a shocker for him.

Cricket pundits feel that its too harsh to drop an important player like Raina from Deodhar trophy .Rightly so , because he can single handedly change the course of the match with bat or ball and if he fails in both then his enthusiasm on the field could make a difference . No doubt he is the most useful cricketer and should be given optimum chances in domestic circuit to regain his lost form .

How IPL 10 is Important for Suresh Raina.

Team Gujarat Lions

Raina would be leading the strong looking Gujarat Lions that is in contention of clinching the maiden IPL trophy. He will hold the key in the batting line up acquiring the important number 4 position to bat , which is considered to be a position of controller.

Raina is the highest run getter in IPL history with 4098 runs at a blisterring average of 33.59 and at a healthy strike rate of 138.58 . He has been performing consistentely in the IPL and no doubt he will roar again with the bat to shut his critics. Captaincy would certainly not be a barrier to deplete his run getting ability as he is a natural stroke player and would look to continue his natural game of aggression.

Indian team certainly needs a backup captain besides Virat in the shorter format of the game and the experienced Raina would be the best suited for the vacant post in the team. His acrobat with bat and bowl would bring the right balance for India in the champions trophy.


Raina has allready termed that he is super excited for the tournament to begin , because IPL has been lucky for him personally and also with his cricket. He would surely look to continue his IPL dream run in the 10th season because T20 cricket gives him the freedom to play aggressively that suits his style of playing and its matter of just one game to get the form back for a champion player like him.

We wish him and his team Gujarat Lions all the best for IPL 10.
