The name Suresh Raina is synonymous to consistency in the Indian Premier League. He scored more than 400 runs in 9 of the 11 seasons so far. Even in the remaining two seasons, he scored a 374 (2015) and 399 (2016) runs. As a result, the southpaw tops the list of the highest run-scorer in IPL with 4985 runs in 172 innings.
