Arjun Tendulkar named in Mumbai’s Under-14 probables list
Mumbai: A month after he scored his first century, Arjun Tendulkar has made it to the under-14 probables list for the off season training camp by the Mumbai Cricket Association.
Arjun, son of legendary batsman Sachin Tendulkar, had slammed the first century of his blooming career in the MCA’s Under-14 selection trials held at the Cross Maidan in Mumbai on May 26.
The 12-year old had made 124 to help Khar Gymkhana beat Goregaon Centre by an innings and 21 runs and enter the final of the tournament. He had hit 14 boundaries and a six during his knock.
Arjun, who is a left hander unlike his father, had made his debut at the national level in January last year in the Cadence Trophy in Pune. He has been in news since then. In the same tournament this year, he made 65 off 39 balls against PCMC Varroc Vengsarkar CA.
Arjun, who also bowls left-arm pace, impressed everyone with his bowling prowess when he finished with figures of eight for 22 that helped Dhirubhai Ambani International School beat Jamnabai Narsee School in November 2011.
Born on 24th September 1999, Arjun is often seen going to the stadium to watch his father play and enthusiastically cheering for him.
