Arjun Tendulkar, the son of cricketing legend Sachin Tendulkar, delivered a scintillating performance for Goa by taking an impressive 9-wicket haul against Karnataka XI in the KSCA pre-season invitational tournament.

Promising all-rounder Arjun Tendulkar followed in the footsteps of his legendary father Sachin Tendulkar to carve a professional career for himself in the realm of cricket.

However, his journey hasn’t been as smooth as he anticipated it to be. Due to a lack of opportunities, Arjun Tendulkar had to switch his domestic base from Mumbai to Goa.
