Scheduled jobs are not running in sandbox after Refresh

Question

We have certain scheduled jobs in production which runs batch classes and they are scheduled to run every day.

Now when I refreshed a fullcopy sandbox, I don't see any log of these batch classes running. I checked it in 'Apex Jobs'. But under production apex jobs I see correct entries.

Scheduled Jobs section in sandbox show correct values under 'Started' and 'Next Scheduled Run' details. But no log in apex job for these batch classes.

So is it like scheduled jobs are not getting triggered at all? Is it a known issue or I have to enable something after refresh?
