Arjun Tendulkar is a long way from emulating his father in the cricketing field, but he is most certainly on the right track. Son of the legendary Indian cricketer, Arjun recorded his best T20 bowling figures, scalping four wickets against Hyderabad in the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. The left-arm pacer dismissed his Mumbai Indians teammate Tilak Verma in Jaipur on Friday, October 14.

Arjun Tendulkar bowled a maiden and conceded just 10 runs in his 4-over spell for Goa, for whom he switched ahead of the start of the domestic season from Mumbai.
Arjun picked up the wicket of half-centurion and his Mumbai Indians teammate Tilak Verma even as Hyderabad managed to post 177 for 6 in their quota of 20 overs.
Arjun did not pick up a wicket in his first Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy match for Goa against Tripura on October 11. However, he picked up 2 wickets and gave away 20 runs in Goa's second match against Manipur on the following day in Jaipur.

Goa is placed second in Group B with two wins in as many matches so far.
