HOC's handler function bypassed in Jest

Can anyone help me understand why the handler function in the HOC does not get called when the blur event is simulated in this jest test?

//MyInput.js
export const MyInput = (props) => (
  <div>
    ...
    <input onBlur={ props.onBlur } />
    ...
  </div>
)


//HOC.js
export const withHOC = (SomeComponent) => {
  return (props) => {
    const handleBlur = () => {
      console.log('this does not get called');
      //do stuff
      props.onBlur();
    }

    return <SomeComponent onBlur={handleBlur} />;
  }
}

// test.js
describe('HOC', () => {
  it('fires a  callback in response to the blur event', () => {
    const ModifiedInput = withHOC(MyInput);
    const onBlurMock = jest.fn(() => {
      console.log('this does get called');
    });
    const wrapper = mount(<ModifiedInput onBlur={onBlurMock} />);
    const input = wrapper.find('input');
    input.simulate('blur');
    expect(onBlurMock).toHaveBeenCalled();
  })
})
