LUCKNOW: Lucknow Super Giants left-arm seamer Mohsin Khan believes he is able to come back to competitive cricket in the IPL largely because of the constant motivation of his late mother, who passed away two months ago. The pacer also reflected on the doubts that crept in during a long spell on the sidelines after injury, before revealing how he drew strength from family through rehabilitation.<\/p>\n
Mohsin said the extended layoff created a period of self-doubt, but that his mother kept encouraging him during his recovery. He explained that while he was unable to play competitive matches and even after surgery during rehab, negative thoughts would frequently surface, testing his confidence.<\/p>\n
The bowler added that he questioned whether he would ever return to cricket after being sidelined for about 14\u201315 months. Despite that uncertainty, he said his mother remained a steady support and repeatedly told him that he would get to play again.<\/p>\n
Mohsin further shared that his mother\u2019s wish was to see him return to the IPL and to competitive cricket. He said he was with the LSG group at the time and had just returned from Bengaluru, and that she died on the same day as his return.<\/p>\n
He described his bond with his mother as close, saying he used to speak to her frequently over phone calls. After her death, Mohsin said he went into a state of shock and trauma, and that he did not practise for an entire month.<\/p>\n
On being retained by Lucknow Super Giants despite the challenges posed by his injury, Mohsin admitted that it was something he had not anticipated. He credited the franchise\u2019s support staff\u2014physio Vaibhav Daga, trainer Soham, and bowling coach Bharat Arun\u2014for helping him build back fitness and regain his bowling rhythm.<\/p>\n
Mohsin also revealed that he worked on his bowling with pacer Mohammed Shami at Shami\u2019s farm in Amroha. He said the setup includes a gym and a ground, and that the two discussed key bowling details, along with areas where Mohsin needed improvement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
