Arjun, who has also played for the Mumbai Indians of the Indian Premier League, has appeared in two games for Mumbai in the upcoming 2020-21 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
Arjun Tendulkar, son of cricket legend Sachin, is leaving Mumbai and is expected to play for Goa, a team in the southwest of India, in the upcoming domestic season. This 22-year-old left-arm bowler has also played for the IPL’s Mumbai Indians, and he has appeared in two games for Mumbai in the 2020-21 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, one against Haryana and one against Puducherry. It has come to light that Tendulkar junior has submitted a formal request for a NOC from his parent club, the MCA.
“At this point in his career, Arjun needs to spend as much time as possible playing on the ground. We anticipate this change will increase Arjun’s exposure to more challenging matchups. The next stage of his cricketing career has begun “According to a press release from SRT Sports Management.
Tendulkar has been included in the Mumbai probables for the white ball portion of the domestic season even this time, having played two “Tests” for the India U-19 team against Sri Lanka three summers ago.
The biggest letdown for Tendulkar this season has been being cut from the Mumbai squad without being given a chance to establish his worth.
Those who have been following him closely believe he has the appropriate mentality and work ethic, but that he needs regular playing time to demonstrate what he’s made of.
His most recent professional experience is with the Mumbai Indians’ developmental group, which spent a lot of time in England playing Twenty20 matches.
Members of the squad that competed in Twenty20 matches against club teams included the likes of Kumar Kartikeya, Anmolpreet Singh, Ramandeep Singh, and Dewald Brevis.
Tendulkar junior is expected to be regarded among the pre-season probables for the state of Goa, according to a senior member of the Goa Cricket Association (GCA).
“We’ve been on the lookout for talented left-handed bowlers, and we want to bring in some multitalented batsmen to bolster the middle of the order. We asked Arjun Tendulkar to play for the Goa team in this scenario. He will get some game time in our preseason trial matches (white ball). On the basis of his performance, the selectors will make a decision “The president of the Goa CA, Suraj Lotlikar, made the comment to PTI.
One of the many Indian cricket legends from Mumbai whose offspring have played for other states is Sunil Gavaskar’s son Rohan, who after moving to Bengal at age 18 became one of the state’s leading run scorers and captains for several years.
Prior to Tendulkar’s kid, another former India captain’s son made a brief appearance in Goa.
His name was Mohammed Asaduddin, and he appeared in a couple of Ranji Trophy games in 2018. Mohammed Azharuddin was his father.
