Lucknow, April 22 Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) left-arm pacer Mohsin Khan insisted the team remains upbeat despite recent setbacks in IPL 2026, adding that the dressing room continues to be filled with motivation and belief ahead of their clash against Rajasthan Royals.

LSG, led by India wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant, come into this clash at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium after having lost their last three matches. Interestingly, LSG are yet to win a game at home this season.

"The team atmosphere is a little affected because of the losses, so it does not feel great, but overall it is very good. It is not like just because we are losing, everything has gone upside down. The atmosphere is very positive, everyone is motivating each other, and building confidence about how to go out there and win. Preparations are going on well," Mohsin said in a pre-game chat with the broadcasters.

He also confirmed being fit to play for the rest of the season after being unwell following the opening game against the Delhi Capitals, where he picked 1-19. Mohsin did play in LSG’s 54-run loss to Punjab Kings in New Chandigarh, and picked 1-43.

"My body is absolutely fine, brother. I played the first match and was feeling a little unwell after that, but now I am completely fine, ready, and fully prepared to play. My body feels very good," he added.

Looking ahead to the challenge of facing RR’s formidable batting line-up, Mohsin remained unfazed. "It is normal. We will play the way we have always played, and we will try to get them out as quickly as possible. The team wants to win, and we are ready to play for the win," he said.
