On Sunday, the International Cricket Council (ICC) acknowledged that they had received a confidential e-mail from Lalit Modi, in which he had accused three Chennai Super Kings players of being involved in betting and taking bribes from a bookie, and sharing the information with the Indian cricket board’s anti-corruption unit. The players accused were Indians Suresh Raina, Ravindra Jadeja and West Indian all-rounder Dwayne Bravo. Following is the official statement released by the BCCI, by its Secretary Anurag Thakur – “We reviewed the emails sent by Lalit Modi. The ICC had confirmed that they received emails from Modi. They shared it with the BCCI as well. When someone plays international cricket, the responsibility is with ICC’s anti-corruption unit to do an inquiry on it. The follow up is there is nothing in that. If there was something, they would have informed us. If ICC has not got back to us with anything, it means the players have got a clean chit.” The mail by Lalit Modi to the ICC was mentioned in a tweet by Shyam Swami (@shyamswami158) late on Friday. Swami tagged Modi in this tweet, asking the man so much in the news these days what he had to say about it and what the ICC’s response was. Modi replied to the tweet telling Swami that he should ask the ICC, the BCCI and the IPL authorities about the mail. ‘Ask @Icc @Bcci @Ipl why ask me. This is highly confidential. You should not be tweeting this’, Modi had said in his tweet. The original tweet by @shyamswami158 has been deleted and is no longer visible. Editor : Akanksha Agarwal 

BCCI, due to lack of follow-up by ICC, grants clean chit to the CSK players.

Ravindrasinh Anirudhsinh Jadeja or Ravindra Jadeja first came into limelight in 2008 during the U19 World Cup, which India won under an enthusiastic Virat Kohli. A year later, Jadeja earned the senior callup after some good performances in domestic cricket, and played his first ODI against Sri Lanka, where he scored a half century.  It would take him four more years to make it to the test team, but before that he would be brought for $2 crore in the Indian Premier League (IPL) by Chennai Super Kings (CSK).

After his early break into international cricket, he was dropped for a while, but he forced the selectors to pick him with a barrage of triple centuries in domestic cricket, playing for Saurashtra. In 2012, he scored two triple centuries in a space of two months, after scoring a triple ton in the year before. Jadeja is only the eighth player in the history of the game to have hit three first class triple hundreds.

By the turn of 2017, Jadeja became the first Indian left-arm spinner to take 150 wickets in ODIs, a year in which, he would also reach to the top of the bowler rankings.

Jadeja’s IPL career needs a special mention, when he first played under the revered eye of Australian great Shane Warne at Rajasthan Royals. He played a season for Kochi Tuskers Kerala, after which he began playing under MS Dhoni in the Chennai Super Kings outfit and also in the Indian outfit.

Suresh Raina Biography

Suresh Raina is regarded as one of India's finest T20 batsmen. He stormed into the international scene during the Greg Chappell era. However, after a blistering start, his form dipped over the next year. Then, injury struck so his career was paused in the latter part of the 2007 season.

But it was the IPL that helped revive his career from the ashes. Suresh Raina cemented his spot as a capable finisher for the side, often chipping in with priceless cameos apart from getting the sizable knocks.

A big example of Raina's big match temperament was the way he chipped in during the 2011 quarterfinal against Australia and then the semifinal against Pakistan. Both were cameos statistically but were worth its weight in gold.

Raina was the first Indian player to hold a century in all three formats of the game and although red-ball cricket wasn't his cup of tea, his contributions in the other formats were valuable to Indian cricket. There has always been immense criticism about his short ball Achilles heel in limited-overs cricket, but it does not qualify as a flaw.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-127633" src="http://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Suresh-Raina-plays-a-shot.jpg" alt="Suresh Raina" width="628" height="355" />

Time away from the Indian team wasn't good for Raina as he wasn't quite able to make the runs in domestic cricket. He still played T20Is although he found himself strangely dropped from there as well, ironically after a Man of the Match performance against England in early 2017.

After a really lean patch, Raina shone in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, India's domestic T20 tournament, in early 2018 and earned himself a recall to the Indian side for the T20 series in South Africa. He did decently well in South Africa, which pressed the selectors persisted with him for the Nidahas Trophy and the England tour. However, he was not picked for the national side after that due to not-so-great fitness levels and others grabbing opportunities. This meant he was out of the reckoning for the 2019 World Cup as well.

IPL Career

Raina was the backbone of Chennai Super Kings' success. His dashing left-hand style of play at No. 3 gave CSK the luxury to attack at will with a lot of firepower left down the order. The fact that he is currently the highest run-getter in the history of IPL. It explains the importance of Raina's contribution to the side.

The lofted straight drive (or hitting in the V) is a shot fans savour to watch as he audaciously plays without fear in a tournament like IPL. He recorded his highest-score in IPL - 100 not out against Kings XI Punjab in 2013 in Chennai, but his blitzkrieg (87 runs off just 25 balls) against KXIP in Qualifier 2 in 2015 standouts amongst all of his IPL performances.

Raina also bowls very useful right-arm off spin and was often used by Dhoni when he had to look for breakthroughs or try something different. However, he has not been bowling of late with many other options being available for the captain. When CSK faced a two-year exile after the 2015 season, Raina captained the temporary franchise Gujarat Lions as well. When CSK returned from the hiatus, he was one of the three players retained by the franchise . He has been one of the greats in IPL history, referred fondly as 'Mr.IPL' due to his dominance in the tournament, where he has scored in excess of 400 runs every year, barring two seasons.

Expectations for IPL 2019

Suresh Raina is an excellent player and will be a key weapon for CSK's 4th IPL title.
