Rio was born in March 2020. The cricketer also has a six-year-old daughter named Gracia.

On Wednesday (August 31), Raina took to his official Instagram account to share a video of him playing a game of cricket with his son at home. He posted the video with the caption:

The southpaw announced his retirement from international cricket on August 15, 2020, the same day on which MS Dhoni confirmed his international retirement.

A few days back, Raina was seen at practice wearing the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) jersey. The cricketer has played a majority of his matches in the Indian Premier League (IPL) for the Chennai franchise. However, he was not picked by the side for the 2022 edition.

"It aches my heart to hear about the passing away of my coach Krishnan Sir, the reason behind all my achievements and hard work, the lessons he taught me can never be forgotten, forever in my memories and prayers. My deepest condolences to his family and loved ones. Om shanti.”
