Musheer Khan’s accident happened when he was travelling with his father and two others in an SUV, which collided with a median and overturned, according to eyewitness accounts and a member of the Lucknow Police traffic directorate. However, Musheer is now back in Mumbai for treatment and checkups. Naushad thanked the BCCI and Mumbai Cricket Association medical teams for taking care of them.
Musheer was supposed to represent the Ranji Trophy champions, Mumbai, in the Irani Cup fixture at the Ekana Stadium. Following the Irani game, Mumbai’s Ranji campaign is scheduled to begin on October 11 against Baroda. The MCA is yet to name a replacement for Musheer in the Irani squad, which is led by Ajinkya Rahane.
