He lost his loyalty in the UAE, we don’t need to go on (and talk about) why it was. There’s enough speculation about that. He lost the loyalty of the team and he lost the loyalty of MS Dhoni. Once you do that, you’re very unlikely to be welcomed back”.
Raina also announced his international retirement on the same day as Dhoni did. He is the fourth-highest run-getter in the IPL as he made 5,528 runs in 205 matches.
