Arjun Tendulkar has been in spotlight for all his life majorly because of his father, the cricketing god, Sachin Tendulkar. However, his biggest moment in the sun came when he bowled the final over of SRH-MI game with SRH needing 20 from the final over. The junior Tendulkar naturally was under pressure as it was just his second IPL game and it was the first time he was bowling in the death for MI. 

However, Arjun Tendulkar did not shy away from the responsibility and nailed some perfect wide yorkers, eventually taking his maiden IPL wicket and sealing a hard-fought win for his side. The wicket came on the penultimate delivery of the game as Arjun bowled another wide yorker. Bhuvneshwar Kumar was the batter on strike and got across to heave it towards the leg side but only managed to get the leading edge as the ball went straight into the hands of Rohit Sharma at extra cover.

This was the first real test in high-pressure environment of Arjun Tendulkar and he showed all his class when the moment arrived. Arjun Tendulkar got pretty emotional too after getting that final wicket and it showed how much it meant to the young boy, who has been in MI setup for a long time but could only make his debut in the last game against KKR. 

Overall, he gave away only 5 runs in the final over and went for just 18 runs in 17 balls he bowled taking his first IPL wicket along the way.
