LUCKNOW: Medium pacer Mohsin Khan has been conspicuously absent at the ongoing UP Ranji Trophy camp underway at the Ekana stadium here.

Amid reports circulating that he might skip Ranji tournament due to injuries, Mohsin on Friday told TOI that he had been suffering from viral infection and would join the Ranji camp soon.

“I am suffering from a viral infection and not in a condition to join the Ranji camp. I am physically fit and have no injury. I performed well in the UPT20 League and bagged 15 wickets in 11 matches while playing for Kanpur Superstars. I will join Ranji camp soon,” he said.

“I have played only one Ranji match so far (against Madhya Pradesh in 2020),” he said, adding that he made a strong comeback with IPL and had been playing since 2022.

UP Ranji head coach Sunil Joshi said, “Mohsin is among the probables but he has not reported at the Ranji camp yet. I received a message that he was suffering from a viral infection. We are hopeful he will recover soon and join the camp.”

In the last three years, Mohsin has taken 27 wickets in 24 matches for Lucknow SuperGiants. Mohsin hit the ground running in IPL 2024, bagging 10 wickets in 10 matches.

Mohsin was with Mumbai Indians for four years before joining Lucknow Super Giants in 2022.
