Indian Premier League (IPL) has always been just more than cricket as it involves precise planning, to get their desired set of players. The moment it was announced that the Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals will be allowed to retain players from their squad of 2015, it was pretty evident that MS Dhoni and Suresh Raina will don the same yellow jersey again.
CSK got their Thala Dhoni back, alongside his deputies Suresh Raina and Ravindra Jadeja. Raina felt nostalgic on his return to CSK. He has some amazing memories associated with CSK and now he can’t wait for April when the business will actually take place.
Suresh has an average of over 33 in T20s shared his delight on Twitter, where he wrote: “Taking a trip to nostalgia! There is no bigger joy then reuniting with your family & the force of reunion is unstoppable! ?#Chennai here we come to make the celebration of 378 years even more special!? #IPLRetention #CSK #WhistlePodu @ChennaiIPL @IPL @msdhoni @imjadeja”.

Raina mentioned 378 years, since IPL started only a decade back, because Chennai was found 378 years ago, which prompted him to use the reference. Another link of Chennai’s history can be connected with the jersey numbers of Raina, Dhoni and Jadeja, which are 3, 7 and 8 respectively.
