Arjun Tendulkar Clinches 5 Wickets Riding Mumbai To Victory In Cooch Behar Trophy
For a person of Sachin Tendulkar’s stature, people always lay their eyes of the successors. Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar has certainly raised the bars of cricket by achieving some impossible records in all the International formats of cricket. Starting exclusively from a couple of years, his son Arjun Tendulkar is on news all the way since then.
It is his entry into cricket that roped him into the limelight. To be fair his left arm medium pace also speaks immensely about his abilities but just like every other star kid- he too is in the limelight not in the way they appreciate it.
One must understand that if it was about power, Arjun would have been in the Indian Team by now but Sachin would be the first one to advise him against using his name and we are glad that Arjun is following his father’s footsteps of determination and hard work to reach his goal.
We have seen Sachin Tendulkar’s son, Arjun Tendulkar recently joining in to test himself against the best in business while also learn some valuable techniques from India’s bowling coach Bharat Arun. Arjun has been practicing with a lot of teams off-late. His recent development in terms of cricket is quite impeccable.
Arjun Tendulkar played a key role in handing Mumbai a crucial win in the Cooch Behar Trophy in which Mumbai beat Railways by an inning and 103 runs. He clinched five wickets, Arjun bowled well in the first innings as well but failed to take a wicket. He bowled six overs with one maiden and gave away 23 runs.
On the batting front, Arjun managed to add 21 runs to the team. Mumbai won the toss and elected to bat and then posted a total of 389 runs, thanks to a double century by Yashasvi Bhupender Jaiswal. In reply, Railways were bowled out for a mere 150. A Vashishtha took eight wickets for 30 in that innings.
Mumbai forced a follow-on and Arjun ran through the top order of Railways before they were skittled out for 136 runs as Mumbai won the game. Arjun picked his five wickets for 44 runs in his 11 overs.

From time to time, Arjun got the opportunity to bowl to world’s biggest players like Virat Kohli. He was roped in as one of the net bowlers for India before India’s New Zealand ODI match against New Zealand in Mumbai. Earlier, he had injured England batsman Jonny Bairstow with Yorker during a net session at Lord’s.
