After Arjun, who is a pace bowler, clinched his maiden wicket in the Indian Premier League (IPL), Sachin Tendulkar lauded his son but with much fun.
He wrote on Instagram, "A superb all-round performance by @mumbaiindians once again. @__camgreen__ impressed with both bat & ball. @ishankishan23 & @tilakvarma9’s batting is as good as it gets! The IPL is getting more interesting every day. Great going boys!
"And finally a Tendulkar has an IPL wicket! @arjuntendulkar24."
Sachin Tendulkar, the master of batting, has no wicket against his name in the IPL.
Cameron Green's maiden IPL fifty and Arjun's fiery last over propelled Mumbai Indians to a 14-run victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Tuesday.
Needing 20 off the last over, Hyderabad could muster up only six runs as Arjun bagged his first IPL wicket in the form of Bhuvaneshar Kumar, who was caught by Rohit Sharma for 2.
