Virender Sehwag and S Sreesanth rate Arjun Tendulkar on his IPL debut

Virender Sehwag and S Sreesanth gave their rating on Arjun Tendulkar's performance in his debut match. 

Mumbai Indians won their second game of the season against Kolkata Knight Riders on April 16. Sachin Tendulkar’s son, Arjun Tendulkar, made his IPL debut in this match after a long time. Arjun conceded 13 runs in two overs and wasn’t called back later to complete his quota. He also did not get the opportunity to bat as MI won with six wickets in hand. 

Former Indian pacer Sreesanth was full of praise for Arjun’s bowling with the new ball.

“I was the happiest person when I saw him on the ground. It’s so good to see a legend’s son and it isn’t easy for a player from a legendary family, but he came out with flying colors,” Sreesanth told Star Sports. And I feel he played exceptionally well for his first game. I would have loved to see him get a wicket and go about things. But I am very confident that having a father like Sachin Paaji will help him come good.”

Sehwag, in conversation with Cricbuzz at the end of KKR’s innings, had said: “He was brilliant on his debut”. The former India opener also wanted to see Arjun hit a six as a winning run for MI, but perhaps that is reserved for another day.

Mumbai Indians will be playing their next match against Sunrisers Hyderabad on April 18, and it is expected that Arjun Tendulkar will feature in that match too.
