Sachin Tendulkar’s son Arjun has grabbed the headlines with his all-round performance in the ongoing Spirit of Cricket Global Challenge, organised by the Sydney Cricket Ground.
Playing for the Cricket Club of India in a T20 match, Arjun hit 48 runs from just 27 balls and then picked up four wickets in as many overs. Arjun unlike his father, is a left-hand batsman and a fast bolwer.
“I just got stronger [growing up], grew taller and I loved bowling fast from my childhood. I thought I may well be a quick bowler because there aren’t many in India,” Arjun told abc.net.au on Thursday.
“I don’t take that pressure, when I bowl I just hit the deck hard on every ball and when I bat just play my shots and choose which bowlers to take on and which bowlers not to” he added further.
