Raghu is one of those members of the support staff who is often seen doing his work behind the scenes.

Raghu is a very important member of Team India’s support staff.

Talking about Raghavendra alias Raghu, he is a throw down specialist who used to throw the ball at high speed during net practice so that the batsman could prepare himself against the fast bowlers. Raghu entered the support staff of Team India during the Australian tour in 2011-12. After this, he was again included in the support staff for the England tour in 2014 and till now he has remained a part of the team.

The credit for including Raghu in the support staff of Team India goes to Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid. When Raghu was in the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru, he made Sachin and Dravid practice. After this, due to the recommendation of these two, it was decided to make Raghu a part of the support staff.
