Although speed may not be Arjun Tendulkar’s strongest suit, Brett Lee believes that this early exposure will help the left arm quickly advance significantly in his career in the IPL 2023.
After bowling his ideal last over for Mumbai Indians against Sunrisers Hyderabad match on Tuesday, young Arjun Tendulkar has become the talk of the entire country.
The task of holding off 20 runs in the final over was given to Arjun Tendulkar. He accomplished it admirably by allowing just 5 runs while grabbing his first IPL 2023 wicket.
Young Arjun’s two-match IPL career has been quite the adventure. From his debut against the Kolkata Knight Riders to his dismissal of Bhuvneshwar Kumar to start off the wicket column.
Brett Lee made the decision to look past Arjun’s flawless Yorker delivery. While everyone else was enamoured with the 21-year-old’s death-bowling prowess as one of the greatest fast bowlers of all time.
Arjun Tendulkar has done well so far in the IPL 2023
Arjun was referred to as the team’s “yorker king” in a video shared by MI batter Tilak Varma and Lee lingered on the phrase saying that the way he carried out his plans stands young Arjun in excellent stead.
The Yorker is something that Arjun has been working on and is happy to be able to use when necessary. He was admitted during the post-match presentation ceremony.
He handled the stress admirably. In that final over, he only allowed 4-5 runs earning his first IPL wicket. Congratulations to him but as I stated before it occurred, no matter what happened at the end that experience of him bowling in the death
Arjun started bowling for MI against KKR at Wankhede and finished with 0/17 in two overs. He went one batter finished with 1/18 against SRH and bowled both with the new ball and in the death.
Arjun’s greatest strength may not be speed, but Lee believes that this exposure so early in his career will help the left arm quickly get far in his career.
He made an excellent attempt to nail that wide-line Yorker. Being under pressure as the entire team was depending on him was difficult when he was playing only his second game.
His game is only going to get better, said Lee, whose rivalry with Sachin, the father of Arjun is legendary. “He honed himself impeccably spoke well and his game is only going to improve,” said Lee.
