IPL 2018: 3 players that Chennai Super Kings should retain

#3 Suresh Raina, India

Raina is the highest run-getter in IPL history

Suresh Raina played a pivotal role in CSK's consistent success in the IPL. He is the highest run-getter in the IPL, having scored a staggering 4540 runs at a strike-rate of 139 from 157 innings. It is no exaggeration to say that Raina is a better IPL batsman than Virat Kohli. Chennai Super Kings can give him his favourite one-down slot which suits his batting.

He is just 30 years old and a fantastic athlete. Raina still has three to four good years in him and, like Dhoni, is adored by the CSK fans. He is also a handy off-spinner and an awesome fielder and it would be a huge mistake if the CSK management were to let him go.
