Sachin had left the ground even before the last over of son Arjun
Sachin Tendulkar left the Mumbai dugout and went to the dressing room, but a lot of nervousness could be seen on his face. If Sachin himself was on the field and bowling or had to score 20 runs in the last over, he might not have been so upset. He knew that if the son missed here, not only would he be followed on social media, but people would taunt him by comparing him with Sachin.
Sachin Tendulkar looked more nervous than Arjun
Growing up among the great bowlers and batsmen of the world, Arjun must have been equally nervous. Well, Rohit Sharma had decorated the field according to Arjun. Now Sachin’s son needed to do wonders. The left-arm pacer beat Irfan Pathan’s disciple Abdul Samad in the very first ball. Ishaan Kishan fields the ball brilliantly, keeping the ball away from the body and well outside the off stump.
The wait is over, Sachin’s son Arjun Tendulkar finally played IPL
This is how Arjun did amazing and shocked the first wicket
On the next ball, Abdul looked in a bit of a hurry and was run out for a quick run-stealing. Wide again, while Mayank Markandey scored two runs on the next legal delivery. The fourth ball was a good yorker, on which Mayank scored a single as leg bye. Now Bhuvneshwar Kumar was in front. Arjun not only took his first wicket by getting Bhuvi out caught by Rohit, but also gave Mumbai a 14-run victory. This is the same Bhuvi, who came into limelight for the first time after clean bowling Sachin Tendulkar.
Arjun Tendulkar was lifted by the players
Arjun Tendulkar was lifted by the players as soon as Mumbai Indians won. It felt as if it was not Mumbai, but Arjun’s victory. Arjun was still looking in shock. On the other hand, father Sachin had a proud smile on his face. He knew the value of this over. If the son had missed here, everyone would have said about the future cricket journey that he is the elder father’s son, so opportunities will be given.
Arjun Tendulkar took the first wicket of IPL, Mumbai defeated SRH
Arjun’s arrow has hit the target, so everyone will be silent
Arjun did the opening two overs against Kolkata Knight Riders and also started against Sunrisers Hyderabad. When he did not come to bowl in the middle overs, people started commenting that if he could not bowl in the middle overs or death overs, he would be a burden on the team. But when Arjuna’s arrow has hit the target, everyone will be silent.
Arjun got the result of his hard work
On the other hand, if Rohit Sharma had the option, believe me, he would hardly have caught the ball to Arjun. Everyone knows that the condition of big bowlers worsens in the last over, Arjun still played only one match. After the match, he was seen praising Arjun. Looked overwhelmed by his bowling. It is the magic of the title that everyone is praising Arjun on social media, but the hard work Arjun has put in to reach here, got to see the fruits of that on Tuesday night.
