Suresh Raina trains ahead of the ODI series in England

Looks like Raina is back in the scheme of things after being dropped for the Asia cup earlier this year

Suresh Raina is gearing up for a busy season. He has been included in the side to play five ODI’s and a T20 in England once the Test series gets over. Since he is not part of the Test squad, he is currently in India and has been training to be in shape for the ODI series. He took to twitter to reveal his fitness regime.

Sorry have to rush for training now. The next time I hope it will be an hour, and I will try to give a day's notice!

After getting the axe for the Asia Cup earlier this year, there were doubts about his ODI future with the World Cup fast approaching. When he was named Captain to tour Bangladesh in June, there were suggestions that he is part of the side only as a leader in the absence of Dhoni and Kohli. But all those rumours have been put to rest with him being retained. 

He made scores of 27, 25 and 15 not out in the three outings against Bangladesh in that low scoring series, but would be looking to score much more in the coming months to be on that plane to Australia.
