Suresh Raina that fantastic all rounder from the Indian cricket team is about to complete his five years in the international cricket, Raina was eighteen years old when he got into international cricket for his debut. That day was such a good day for Raina as he was bowled on a duck by Muttiah Muralitharan. That day will always be remembered by Suresh Raina, in that series against Sri Lanka Raina had a batting average of about 12runs. This was a very poor performance by the all rounder, after that Raina started progressing by leaps and bounds. Suresh has made his name in the T-20 and the ODI career but he did not get any chance to play the tests. Finally Raina was given a chance at the second test against Sri Lanka that is in progress. Raina batted really well and he scored a century in the second test. And now India lead by twenty seven runs. He has become the second batsman to score a century at his debut. India was struggling while

chasing a big lead of 642 runs. Just when India needed a healthy partnership Raina and Tendulkar made a fine partnership. Sachin Tendulkar has scored a double century in the second test. After such a Performance in his debut, Suresh Raina will surely be selected for the 3rd and final test of the India-Sri Lanka test series. Viru was the batsman before Raina who scored a ton on his debut. Raina came onto the crease after the dismissal of VVS Laxman. Five years of his international career will be completed tomorrow. Raina was caught behind in the over of Ajanta Mendis at 120.
