When Suresh Raina announced his retirement, Anil Kumble was the head coach of the Indian cricket team, and Virat Kohli was the captain. So, according to Raina, a former India middle-order batter, he might have asked why he was dropped from the team. As there was no clear answer, he decided to walk away from international cricket.
"No, every captain has his own team, right... as you can see. When someone else became captain, he felt this player is better, that player is better. Because, as you can see, everything kept changing after that. People like us, when Yuvi pa [Yuvraj Singh] and I were there, we failed the Yo-Yo test too. After that, we cleared it as well, played a lot of domestic cricket, scored a lot of runs too," Raina told former India batter Aakash Chopra during a conversation.
Former captain Virat Kohli had a role behind Suresh Raina's retirement
Raina expected to be a part of the 2019 World Cup in England, but he was not in the plans of the selectors and the Indian team management. Suresh Raina, with his experience,s understood that every captain has their own choices. So maybe he was not a fit in Virat Kohli's plans.
