Proving his loyalty, Suresh Raina always was convinced that he only wanted to play for Chennai in the Indian T20 League. He was a huge part of the team setup from the inception and won four titles with the team. Along with MS Dhoni, he was their biggest asset for all these years, and now he has been let go. Chinna Thala, Suresh Raina, was unsold in the Indian T20 mega auction 2022.
Except for the two seasons in which Chennai was banned, Suresh Raina was a part of the core Chennai team.ย The duo of Thala and Chinna Thala (MS Dhoni and Suresh Raina) has given us some great memories to cherish for a lifetime. Their consecutive wins in 2010 and 2011 were a major highlight for the team. The 2018 season where the players were united after two years is another major memory of the team.
The fans and non-fans of the team know what he has done in the tournament, and everyone knows what legacy he has left behind. Everyone believed that he should have been sold in the auction, and took to Twitter to thank him for his contribution to the team and the tournament. Some called it the 'end of an era' while others recalled some of his great memories with Chennai. Here are some of the best tweets.

Suresh Raina said "If CSK win IPL 2021 then I will convince MS Dhoni to play IPL 2022 as well".
Now Dhoni is playing IPL 2022 but Raina is not ๐ญ๐

Sad that not a single team picked Mr. IPL Suresh Raina who has had an extraordinary performance in most IPL tournaments. Someone who has scored 400 runs in most IPLs till now. Many today are heartbroken to see him go unsold.
