IPL 2023: A Look At Arjun Tedulkar's Cricketing Career As He Makes IPL Debut In MI vs KKR Game - In Pics

With his left-arm fast bowling and proficiency with the bat, Arjun made his First Class debut for Goa against Rajasthan on December 13, 2022. Despite being just 23 years old, he impressed with a debut century and three wickets in a drawn game.

Earlier on November 12, 2022, Arjun made his List A debut for Goa. Additionally, in 2021, he also marked his T20 debut against Haryana, securing one wicket.

Arjun has a remarkable T20 record, taking 12 wickets in just nine matches with an impressive economy rate of 6.60. This has been a significant achievement for Goa. Now, with his debut for the Mumbai Indians in the IPL, Arjun is poised to elevate his game to new heights. Despite spending considerable time on the sidelines, the young player is determined to seize this opportunity and leave a lasting impression.

Arjun Tendulkar's IPL journey began in 2021 when he was bought by the Mumbai Indians at his base price of INR 20 lakhs. In the subsequent IPL 2022 auction, he was again put up for sale, and this time the Gujarat Titans joined a brief bidding war with the Mumbai Indians. However, the Mumbai Indians eventually secured Arjun for INR 30 lakhs.

During his formative years, Arjun Tendulkar received coaching from Atul Gaikwad, a coach based in Mumbai who played a significant role in his development. More recently, the left-handed cricketer was observed training under Yograj Singh, a former Indian cricketer who has since turned to acting and is the father of the legendary Indian all-rounder, Yuvraj Singh. In September 2022, Arjun underwent two weeks of training under Singh to prepare for the JP Atray Memorial Cricket Tournament.
