Karnataka captain Mayank Agarwal, who was recently hospitalised after drinking a suspicious liquid on-board a flight, has recovered and will return to lead his team against Tamil Nadu in its next Ranji Trophy Group C match in Chennai from Friday. The 32-year-old batter had consumed the liquid on board his team`s flight to Surat after the match against Tripura last month. He had to be admitted to a hospital to treat the burning sensation in his mouth and throat.
Agarwal went on to file an FIR alleging foul play. He consequently missed Karnataka`s last engagement against Railways. However, he was cleared of any major health issue by the doctors here, paving the way for his comeback to the team. Promising batter Nikin Jose had led Karnataka against Railways in the absence of Agarwal and the former champions eked out a nervy one-wicket win at Surat with veteran Manish Pandey making an unbeaten fifty.
