Mumbai Indians bowling all-rounder Arjun Tendulkar is yet to play a game for the team. He was signed by the five-time winners in the IPL auction 2021 for his base price. Last year, the Jr. Tendulkar was brought back by the former champions at the end of the mega auctions. Ahead of the IPL 2023, he was retained by MI.
Meanwhile, the franchise uploaded an image of Arjun bowling in the practice session. The image was captioned “Arjun ko bas nishana dikhta hai”. The fans aren’t happy with the team not giving a chance to the youngster. Last year as well, it was anticipated that Arjun will play for the team but that didn’t happen.
This is how Twitter reacted
Let him play in place of Jason and add Brevis to playing XI

Rohit will never give a chance to Arjun.
If Arjun plays well then entire fanbase will go with Arjun.I think Situation of other talents will be horrible. We will never know the talent until and unless they leave mi.
His team selection is a disaster from last year. ??????— suryaprakash boga (@bsprakash01) April 7, 2023

We should have given him a chance last season where we were out of playoffs mid way in the tournament. Mahela Jaywardane has made our team a complete mess.

Arjun Tendulkar has shifted his base from Mumbai to Goa in domestic cricket
Meanwhile, Sachin Tendulkar’s son shifted his base from Mumbai to Goa last year. In the last few years, he tried to make it in the Mumbai squad across formats but failed to do so. For Goa, he played a few games in red-ball cricket and scored a century in his debut Ranj Trophy, just like his father did in 1988.
It will be interesting to see if Jr. Tendulkar will get an opportunity in the ongoing IPL season.
