On Tuesday, the 23-year-old Arjun picked his maiden wicket in the IPL during MI’s victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad. What made Arjun’s performance standout was his ability to deliver under pressure as he defended 20 runs in the last over.
Arjun gave away only five runs in the last over to return impressive figures of 1/18 in 2.5 overs.

Mumbai Indians on Wednesday took to Twitter to share the video of the dressing in which Arjun was being praised for his brilliant performance but a memorable moment came for him when he was given player of the match award by none other than his father Sachin.
“At least there’s a wicket in our family now.” ?? – Sachin Tendulkar. It’s an awww-filled content day – Arjun receives his POTM ??? from his father,” MI tweeted.
“Obviously it was great getting my first IPL wicket. I just had to focus on what was in hand, the plan and executing it. Our plan was just to bowl wide and get the long boundary into play, make the batsman hit it to the longer side,” Arjun said in interaction with Ravi Shastri after the match.
“I love bowling, I am happy to bowl anytime the captain asks me to and just stick to the team plan and give my best. We (Sachin Tendulkar and him) talk about cricket, we discuss tactics before the game and he tells me to back what I practice every game.
