Mohsin Khan bowled a superb spell against Mumbai Indians (MI) in what was a crucial match for his team Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). The lanky pacer had to defend 11 runs in the final over, with Tim David and Cameron Green on the crease, and Mohsin did a terrific job, as he gave only 5 runs.
Mohsin’s other two overs were equally good, as he executed his plans brilliantly throughout his -over set. It was a fantastic performance in several ways, as things weren’t going right for Mohsin in recent times.
Mohsin had a massive break after the conclusion of the Indian Premier League (IPL) last year since he had to undergo major surgery on his bowling shoulder to remove the blood clots. He didn’t feature in the first half of the ongoing edition of the IPL, and when he did return, his fitness certainly wasn’t 100% to play a cricket game.
Even against MI, Mohsin looked half-fit while bowling, but he still managed to accomplish the job for his team. In the 3 overs, the 24-year-old conceded 26 runs while snaring a vital wicket of Nehal Wadhera in the match.
After delivering a match-winning last over, Mohsin went to have a chat with the on-air experts in the commentary panel, where he gave a shocking health update about his father. Mohsin revealed that his father was admitted to ICU for 10 days due to a serious health issue.
“Been a tough time as I was injured, playing after a year. My father got discharged from the ICU yesterday, and he was in the hospital for the last 10 days, and I did it for him. He would have been watching,” stated Mohsin in the post-match talk.
Mohsin Khan dedicated this marvellous performance to his dad, who is on his way to recovery. It was indeed a shocking revelation by the speedster.
It is never easy to focus on cricket or anything in such situations. Not only did Mohsin keep his focus, but he also delivered for his team when LSG needed it the most, despite not being completely fit.
Here’s how social media reacted:
Mohsin reveals his father was in ICU for the last 10 days and was released yesterday. Dedicates this performance to daddy and then thanks the LSG staff for backing him despite his poor form. That was a very enjoyable interview

Mohsin Khan probably delivered the best over of his two lifetime against two giants (quite literally), and won the game for #LSG . Want to believe it is scripted, but realised MI is owned by Ambani. #LSGvsMI

Mohsin doesnt even look fully fit. He still does it against David. Scary

Mohsin Khan was one of the big finds of last year and a huge prospect. After a year with injury and many other worries, he has made as dramatic a comeback as possible. Top player

Mohsin displayed an exceptional display of his skills as a fast bowler by defending a mere 11 runs against likes David and Green, at less than full intensity.

Incredible over by Mohsin Khan in a massively important game for LSG. Having announced himself as a fantastic prospect last year, he looked slightly off pace this year after a long injury lay off. Tremendous effort to find rhythm in the death overs and execute perfectly. #IPL2023

Lucknow Super Giants will face Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in their last league game at Eden Gardens. A win there will seal their place in the playoffs.
