Grateful to Virat Kohli for showing faith in me: Suresh Raina

With eyes on a permanent place in India's limited-overs squad, middle-order batsman Suresh Raina thanked skipper Virat Kohli for showing faith in his abilities by promoting him to bat up the order in the ongoing three-match T20 series against South Africa. Raina has returned to the Indian team after one-year hiatus and has looked to bat aggressively in the first two T20 internationals against Proteas. The 31-year old didn't manage to score big runs in the first two games but backed his his attacking instinct in the shorter format. "It is important (to attack). Virat (Kohli) showed that faith in me. In the last two games we have dominated in the first six overs. It is very important to play well in the first six overs," Raina said.
