'If you can become even 50 percent like your father…', Kapil Dev makes BIG statement on Arjun Tendulkar

MI bowling coach Shane Bond opined that the left-arm bowler Arjun Tendulkar, needs to work his skills a bit more.

Arjun Tendulkar not playing a single match for the Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Mumbai Indians this season, broke the hearts of many fans. Arjun was picked by MI for a price tag of Rs 30 lakh from the IPL 2022 mega auctions. Despite MI getting eliminated and having 4-5 games to try new combinations, Arjun was never picked up in the playing eleven.

MI bowling coach Shane Bond opined that the left-arm bowler needs to work his skills a bit more. It must be heartbreaking for a player like Arjun, who's son of the legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar to see his age players getting the chance but not getting one himself.

Legendary India captain, Kapil Dev explained how the surname 'Tendulkar' is taking a toll on the youngster's performance and adding pressure on him. Kapil Dev said that Arjun should not be expected to do wonders like his father from day one and start enjoying his game of cricket, given he's just 22 years old.

One of my good friends, a huge Sachin fan shared about Arjun Tendulkar being bought by MI and said, "Waiting for people to cry nepotism on this."

I'm not into cricket so I looked up his stats.
