After a successful run so far in the ninth season of Indian Premier League (IPL) as the skipper of new franchise Gujarat Lions (GL), Suresh Raina has come up to say that he has improved as a person post his marriage. The prolific cricketer, who got married to Priyanka Chaudhary last year, is expecting to become a father anytime soon and before that he has said that marriage has many positive effects on him. GL have performed really well in their inaugural season of IPL, winning four of the five matches so far played and are highly confident now.

Talking to iplt20.com, Raina said, ” I think I have improved a lot as a person after my marriage. I have become very calm and responsible. Next month I am also going to be a father. There comes a fresh breath of air in your life that teaches you many valuable lessons. My wife has been amazingly supportive through this new journey. She encourages me to spend more time with my team mates even if that means I don’t have enough time left for her. Her support and understanding has given me more opportunities to form a bond with this new team, understand my players and gel them together.”

Gujarat Lions, who are coming from a victory over Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on Sunday, will be confident to play their next game against Delhi Daredevils at the Feroz Shah Kotla stadium, Delhi on Wednesday.
