Tom Moody Opens Up On Mayank Yadav, Mohsin Khan's Fitness
Speaking at the pre-match press conference, Moody revealed that both Mayank Yadav and Mohsin Khan had dealt with long-term injuries. However, he praised LSG’s medical team for working exceptionally hard to get them ready.
He further added that while both players are available, Mohsin Khan will undergo a final fitness test on match day.
"The likes of Mayank, Mohsin [Khan] and Avesh have all had long-term injuries. Our medical team has worked exceptionally hard to get them ready. They're all available now. Mohsin will probably have a final test on match day," Moody told reporters, as quoted by ESPNcricinfo.
Moody also explained why Mayank missed LSG’s opening matches, stating:
"Mayank is ready to go. He didn't come into our thinking early in the tournament because he was still a little underdone. Not from a fitness point of view—his fitness was good—but in terms of bowling loads and feeling comfortable at the crease," he added.
