Suresh Raina and Bob Du Plessis played for the Chennai Super Kings in last year's IPL series. Not only that, Chennai team also won the IPL trophy last time. Following this, before the IPL mega auction this year, the Chennai team did not retain Du Plessis and Raina and dropped them from the team.
Also, the CSK team made no attempt to pick both during the auction. Of these, no team, including CSK, has come forward to pick up Raina. Thus, he was declared 'Unsold'. This caused great anguish among the fans. On the other hand, the Bangalore team that bid for Du Plessis recently announced him as the new captain.
Du Plessis, who has captained the South African team, is eager to see Bangalore fans watch him captain the current IPL series. Fans are also hopeful that Du Plessis will rewrite the fate of the Bangalore team that has yet to win an IPL trophy. At the same time, the absence of Raina in the IPL has left many disappointed among his fans.
Meanwhile, Du Plessis has posted a video of himself training for the Bangalore team on his Instagram page. He added, "Thank you for the opportunity to play again in the IPL season. I look forward to it all."
The comment made by Suresh Raina praising Du Plessis is now going viral.
"Congratulations Captain. Play well." Du Plessis also expressed his gratitude for this. As the Chennai team did not bid for Raina, it was rumored that there was a difference of opinion between him and the Chennai team. However, Raina continued to make comments on the Chennai team's record and put an end to it all.
