Raina's Indian Premier League franchise, Chennai Super Kings, also welcomed the news with a tweet saying: "Hello Rio." Amid the deadly coronavirus outbreak, Raina had recently warned against spreading misinformation related to COVID-19. "It's very important that we understand the need of social isolation to break the chain, don't spread information from unreliable sources, don't ignore the health advisories & for sure follow the hygiene measures.#coronavirus" he tweeted. Raina's team CSK were slated to start their IPL 2020 journey by facing defending champions Mumbai Indians in the tournament opener. However, in the wake of COVID-19, the IPL season had to be postponed. Now, the tournament is scheduled to start from April 15. The decision on whether to conduct the IPL 2020 matches in stadiums without fans in the stands or to make a new schedule can be taken only after the situation is assessed after April 15.
