Priyanka wrote, "Role of men in our society has become more crucial then ever to ensure an equal world for men & women.

The southpaw, who was set to play for Chennai in the Dream11 IPL 2020, decided to opt out of the tournament citing personal reasons. However, the Indian veteran is still keeping himself busy these days with one initiative after the other. Quite recently, Suresh Raina took to Twitter and announced his project for a Ghaziabad-based government school, which is aimed to provide better amenities to the underprivileged kids. Moreover, he now appears to have had a fruitful conversation with Indian Sports Minister Kiren Rijiju on the country's sporting progress.

Suresh Raina retirement

The Suresh Raina retirement news was announced by the batsman himself on August 15 when he called it a day from international cricket alongside his close friend MS Dhoni. The left-hander had a glorious international cricketing career which spanned almost 15 years. Raina represented India in 18 Tests, 226 ODIs and 78 T20Is where he scored 768, 5,615 and 605 runs respectively. He was also the first Indian to score a century in all three formats of the game.

Suresh Raina Net Worth

According to Kreedon.com, Chennai team 2020 star Suresh Raina is valued at approximately ₹180 crore. The batsman used to receive a yearly salary of ₹1 crore from the BCCI courtesy of having a Grade C contract until 2019. Besides this, the Chennai star earned ₹35000 per match for domestic matches. If the player participated in an international match, then he earned ₹15 lakhs per Test match, ₹6 lakhs per ODI and ₹3 lakhs for every T20 game.

However, his name was excluded from the 2019-2020 list since he has been out of favour in the national reckoning once his Chennai Super Kings captain MS Dhoni resigned as India's limited-overs leader in early 2017. The Suresh Raina net worth also comprises his earnings from several brand endorsements. At present, the list includes BookMyShow-backed fantasy sports platform Fantain, sportswear brand Asics and Pureplay. Apart from these, the player is also linked with mobile brand Intex, HP and CEAT Tyres. The player is believed to charge ₹7 crores per endorsement.
