The strange coincidence of Sachin-Arjun
While bowling in IPL for the first time for Mumbai Indians, Sachin Tendulkar also gave away 5 runs in his first over. For the first time in the year 2009, Sachin threw his first over from Mumbai Indians. The most surprising thing was that Sachin had bowled his first over in IPL against KKR only. At the same time, Arjun also did his first over in IPL against the KKR team and gave 5 runs. Sachin’s daughter Sara has also shared this coincidence on Insta Story. Sara also reached the stadium to watch the match.
Arjun did an amazing feat by debuting in Ranji
Earlier, in his first Ranji Trophy match, Arjun repeated the feat done by his father Sachin Tendulkar in his Ranji debut by scoring a century. Arjun played his Ranji Trophy debut match against Rajasthan and scored an inning of 120 runs. And when Sachin made his Ranji debut, Tendulkar scored a century.
Arjun’s performance in his first match in IPL 2023
In his first match in IPL against KKR, Arjun bowled 2 overs and gave away 17 runs. Although the speed cup was visible in his bowling, his length was good. Former cricketer Sreesanth gave his opinion on Arjun’s bowling. Sreesanth said that Arjun played his first match with the right confidence. I think he played his first game exceptionally well. At the same time, while talking to Cricbuzz, Sehwag said that I wanted to see Arjun hit a six. But hopefully, I will get to see Arjun in the coming matches.
