The road back to the Indian team wasn’t easy for Suresh Raina. But the left-handed batsman did make the most of his comeback in International cricket as he showed a lot of intent to help India win the T20I series against South Africa in Cape Town on Saturday.
Raina put on an all-round display in the third T20I at the Newlands Stadium as the visitors won the game to clinch the T20I series 2-1.
After his impressive performances, the southpaw was showered with praises from the cricketing fraternity. And most recently, Vellaswamy Vanitha, Indian women’s cricket team member, heaped praises on Suresh Raina.
Vanitha shared a delightful message on Twitter after the Uttar Pradesh lad won the Man of the Match award in the third T20I.
“You are an inspiration!!! So happy to see you back and at your best 🤝 @ImRaina more power to you 👊🏻”, she tweeted.
