A Mumbai Indians (MI) speedster put on a magnificent show in the Dr (Capt) K Thimmappiah Memorial Tournament, a pre-season competition for state teams. He was absolutely unplayable with the ball while representing Goa in the game and wreaked havoc.
Arjun Tendulkar, the son of legendary Sachin Tendulkar, snared as many as nine wickets during the game between KSCA XI and Goa. He took 9 wickets in the contest while conceding only 87 runs in 26.3 overs in both innings combined.
Arjun took five wickets for 41 runs in 13 overs in the first innings at an economy rate of 3.15, playing a crucial role in bundling KSCA XI on a mere 103. Later, in the second innings, he snared four wickets for 55 runs at an economy rate of 5.50 in ten overs as KSCA XI were all out on 121.
