After only two games in the IPL 2023, Arjun Tendulkar has everyone’s attention. The cameras are on him all the time, even when he is not fielding or bowling, and why not? Given that he is the famous Sachin Tendulkar’s son, it is only natural for him to keep his privacy. Despite this, there are few parallels between the two. For starters, Sachin was the greatest batsman of all time, and Arjun is a left-arm fast bowler who can also bat. This, however, is insufficient to keep her out of the spotlight. He has already established himself as the nation’s center of attention and will do so for as long as he plays in the IPL.

Arjun did a fantastic job of passing his first two IPL career litmus tests. The 23-year-old made his IPL debut against Kolkata Knight Riders, bowling two overs and finishing with a 0/17, before making his debut against Sunrisers Hyderabad, when Arjun scored 20 runs in the final over and took his first IPL wicket. took. Arjuna has shown promise despite his lack of pace, and we think he will only get better with time.
Arjun’s bat is still developing, but the youngster seems better suited to bowl. Arjun imitated his father to score a century on his Ranji Trophy debut a few months ago, and MI recently shared a brief video of Arjun in the nets. Former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif thinks Arjun was selected by MI because he is an all-rounder and that the 23-year-old was only a batter, probably best known for his batting, even if the world anticipates seeing more of Arjun’s batting. Comparisons to Sachin would inevitably have hurt his performance.
Response from Dr. Nauman Niaz “Sachin’s standards are so high that his kid could not measure up to them as a batsman,” Arjun must have seen Zaheer Khan, Wasim Akram, and Ashish Nehra frequently, Latif remarked. He must then have bowled his father a lot as well. Players like Ganguly, Sehwag, and Dravid hardly ever had a chance when Sachin used to bat. Arjun may therefore always take the lead when a father and son are playing at home. On his YouTube channel, “Catch Behind,” Latif made a statement regarding bowling.
This may have contributed to his decision to become a bowler. It would have ultimately affected Arjun’s future. As an all-rounder, Arjun is playing for the Mumbai Indians. He wouldn’t have been there if he had arrived as a hitter. have been chosen. A versatile person is highly in demand.
