Cricket is all about enjoying and expressing yourself, Gujarat Lions skipper Suresh Raina has said.

"Enjoy your cricket whether playing for team India or IPL you need to have fun. Cricket is "all about enjoying and expressing yourself," Raina said ahead of their clash with Kings XI Punjab.

Asserting that captaincy of a new franchise is not new for him, he said he has led Uttar Pradesh and the Indian team. He was averse to the thought that he had got new players with him. 

"We have got few guys who can surprise any team," he said. 

For Raina cricket is a "team game". He said his team is a balanced side. To win matches his mantra is "to be positive in all departments of the game." 

Talking about his team he said all players have done well in domestic circuit . Besides, he said his team has a good opening pair and strong middle order.
