Arjun Tendulkar was the most economical bowler of Lucknow Super Giants against Punjab Kings, who got to play his first match this season. Arjun, who came to LSG through trade from Mumbai Indians, remained on the bench from the beginning, the team continued to perform poorly but Arjun was not tried. The team gave him a chance in his last match in the league stage, in which he impressed with his bowling. After the match, his father and great cricketer Sachin Tendulkar wrote a message for him.
Sachin Tendulkar also praised Arjun’s patience more than his performance, how he maintained his composure, waited for his turn, worked hard and had faith in his abilities. Sachin wrote, “Well done, Arjun. I am very proud of the way you have handled yourself throughout this edition, always believed in your abilities, remained patient, worked hard, and remained positive despite waiting for your chance till the last match.”

Sachin further wrote, “Cricket tests your patience as much as it tests your ability, and today you handled both very beautifully. Always stay grounded, and keep loving the game as you always have.”
