Suresh Raina to play CSA T20 League? Aakash Chopra makes a big claim – After going unsold in IPL 2022 Mega auctions, Raina made his debut behind the mic as a commentator. Things though might change as six IPL owners have brought all the six franchises in the new CSA T20 League. Former India batter Aakash Chopra feels few teams might be interested to buy an experienced player like Raina.
“When Indian franchises buy all six teams in the CSA T20 league, it becomes a totally Indian league. Indian franchises are there in the UAE T20 league as well. If it keeps growing like this, franchises might want their players to play in different places. I see Suresh Raina play,” Chopra said in a video posted on his YouTube channel.
