Raghu has the unique skills of giving ‘throwdown’ to players in practice session. This helps them prepare for pace and bounce of pitches like Australia and South Africa. He has been a permanent member of the team for more than a decade and he is clearly doing all in his capacity to support the team.

When India was playing against Bangladesh in Adelaide, the game was interrupted by rain. It stopped for some minutes and while pitch was protected with covers, there was also the need to clean the shoes of players to prevent slipping.
