He will not be available for the rest of the IPL season. Raina and his family are going to get full support from CSK.'

After this accident, the quarantine period of the Mahi-led team has been extended till September 1. After this incident, there is panic in the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), but it is understood that the league is currently in no trouble, which is going to be held in UAE due to the Covid-19 epidemic. Looking at the IPL's last 2-year schedule, the first match is between the teams playing finals last year, according to which the league's first match this year is going to be between CSK and champions Mumbai Indians. However, it is not yet clear whether CSK is ready for the first match to be held on September 19 or not.
