A few days ago, Suresh Raina was busy in the pre-season camp arranged by Chennai Super Kings before the 13th season of IPL. He was doing practice with his teammates MS Dhoni, Ambati Rayudu, Piyush Chawla, etc. in the March 1st week before the camp was suspended due to Coronavirus.
However, in view of the recent circumstances all over the country, the cash-rich league has landed into the water and its possibility looks bleak.
Now, in India, the coronavirus cases have crossed the 1000 and 25 deaths mark amid the lockdown so far in the country.
