“Dear @gujarat_titans, as Roy is out, it’s your sign to get back the Don Suresh Raina back and win the IPL with Mr. IPL,” tweeted a fan.
“Jason Roy out, Suresh Raina in. Possible !!!! Excited?” another fan wrote in his twitter handle.
Raina has put up a stupendous performance in the mega event in the past. His numerous fans across the globe had batted for the south-paw to be bought in this year’s auction also. However, the veteran cricketer with a base price of Rs 2 crore was unsold for the first time in the history of the lucrative league.
However, a window of opportunity has been created for Raina after Roy pulled out of the tournament. There is a chance that Gujarat Lions may respect its fan feelings and rope in the veteran cricketer for the upcoming edition.
