Ever since he made his debut in IPL 2023, Arjun Tendulkar has become a primary focus of the cricket fraternity. The youngster was the bearer of major attention during Tuesday's game between Mumbai Indians and Sunrisers Hyderabad. While on the pitch he did his job and came out all delighted and celebrating after he successfully prevented SRH from scoring beyond 5 runs in the last over, but during the game an instance also occurred that left Arjun miffed.

Arjun Tendulkar was yet again picked in the playing XI of Mumbai Indians. And Upon seemingly impressing the MI team management in his debut game against KKR, the player went forward this time and got his maiden wicket in the Indian Premier League. The 23-year-old got the wicket of Bhuvneshwar Kumar in the 20th over and ended the innings of SRH. With the wicket, Arjun has scripted his name in the list of wicket-takers of the tournament, a category in which his father isn't present. Thus, it was apparently a perfect night for MI and Arjun Tendulkar. However, it wasn't the case.

In reply, Hyderabad did not get the ideal start. The star of their last match, Harry Brook fell cheaply just after scoring 11 runs. At the 8.4 overs mark, SRH lost their captain Aiden Markram and were reeling at 71/3. Despite losing wickets at regular intervals the Sunrisers were in the hunt to get the job done. However, after Mayank Aggarwal held out at the score of 132, the daunting task went beyond reach. With 20 runs to get in the last over and only non-recognized batsmen on the crease, Arjun Tendulkar got the opportunity to finish the proceedings. The left-armer gave only 5 runs in the last over and took his maiden wicket in the form of Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Thus the bottom line of the match was formed which is, Mumbai Indians defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad by 14 runs.
