Two Chennai Super Kings (CSK) players and 12 staff members testing positive for Coronavirus saw star middle order batsman Suresh Raina opting to not take part in the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL), 'citing personal reasons'.

Raina is usually quite active on social media as he posts pictures and videos from his day-to-day activities to keep his fans and followers entertained. However, the star batsman hasn't been active on social media since last 48 hours.

While CSK players are yet to react to Raina's sudden departure, star all-rounder Kedar Jadhav cryptic post on social media has sparked controversy. The out-of-favor India all-rounder did not mention Raina's name in his tweet. But he posted it just a few hours after his exit. “On the path of excellence - you find 1000 excuses to let go, but only 1 reason to hold on. The choice is YOURS !” he wrote.

Cricketers are like prima donnas: N Srinivasan, owner of Chennai Super Kings Reacting to Raina's departure on Sunday, CSK owner N Srinivasan said,"Raina will certainly realise what he is missing and certainly all the money (11 crores salary per season) he is going to lose."

"I spoke to MS (Dhoni) and he has assured me that even if the numbers go up, there was nothing to worry. He spoke to the players through a zoom call and asked them to remain safe. You really don't know who is a passive carrier," Srinivasan told Outlook.

"The season has not begun yet and Raina will certainly realise what he is missing and certainly all the money (a salary of 11 crores per season) he is going to lose.”

The first game of the IPL 2020 will be played on September 19 in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
