Raina appeals to BCCI

Suresh Raina has appealed to BCCI after remaining unsold in IPL Mega Auction. While sharing a video, Raina said that BCCI should at least allow players not playing international cricket to play outside leagues.

A video of Raina is becoming fiercely viral on social media, in which he said, ‘We played wherever we want. Even when you are not in IPL and International cricket.

Nowadays there is international level competition in domestic cricket as well. If we play quality cricket for a few months, be it CPL or BBL, it will look like we are ready now. You see that all the players outside play. Then the players make a comeback for their country. We do not have any other plan either.
