Arjun Tendulkar’s All-Round Brilliance
Arjun was the star of the show as ARCS won the game by nine wickets and handed out the Player of the Match (POMT) award. The left-arm pacer took three wickets and gave just 11 runs in three overs as Blasters managed to post just 144 runs in 20 overs. Arjun took the new ball and dismissed opener Pateek Kumar Yadav and number three batsman Parag Khanapurkar in the first over. Later, he returned to dismiss Aashray Sajnani for a duck in the 19th over.
The Shivam Dube-led side promoted him to number three in the batting order and made the most of the opportunity. He made 66 runs in 34 balls at a strike rate of 194.12, which included four boundaries and five sixes. He put up an unbeaten partnership for the second wicket of 116 runs in 68 balls with Musheer Khan, who made 54 runs in 38 balls.
As things stand, the Andheri-based team is second in the table with three wins in four games. They have six points on the board. They will play their final league match on Wednesday (June 10) against Maratha Royals.
