In a disappointing development for Lucknow Super Giants, Cricbuzz has reported that the team’s rising star Mohsin Khan will likely miss matches in IPL 2023 due to injury. It is unclear whether Khan will be fit in time for any of the matches, which is why some fans have got the feeling that the left-arm pacer might be ruled out of the entire IPL 2023 season. In that situation, LSG will have to sign a replacement for Mohsin Khan.
As per the rules of the Indian Premier League, a team can sign any player from the unsold lot at the auction as a replacement for an injured or unavailable player. In this listicle now, we will look at the four names whom LSG can target as a replacement for Mohsin Khan.
1. Shahbaz Nadeem can be replacement for Mohsin Khan
LSG can add an experienced name to their Indian spin department if they sign Shahbaz Nadeem. He is known for keeping a check on the run-flow. Nadeem was with Lucknow Super Giants last season, but he did not get to play any matches during the season.
2. Varun Aaron can be replacement for Mohsin Khan
Varun Aaron is another experienced option available to be signed. Aaron was a member of the Gujarat Titans team that won IPL 2022. His experience can prove to be handy for the Lucknow Super Giants.
3. Mujtaba Yousuf
Mujtaba Yousuf is a left-arm fast bowler from Jammu and Kashmir. He has earned the attention of the fans with his left-arm pace. Former Indian all-rounder Suresh Raina also heaped praise on his bowling skills. It will be interesting to see if LSG get him as a replacement.
4. Barinder Sran
Left-arm fast bowler Barinder Sran has the experience of playing IPL and international cricket. He can be a decent left-arm pace-bowling replacement replacement signing for LSG.
