Arjun Tendulkar will make his debut in the Mumbai Cricket Association\u2019s T20 Mumbai League to be held from May 14 to 26. Tendulkar Jr, who will represent Aakash Tigers Mumbai Western Suburbs, had a base price of 1 lakh rupees and was eventually picked for the maximum bid of five lakh rupees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Three\n teams bid for him and were given the \u2018opportunity to match\u2019. The OTM \ncan be used by two teams in case a player reaches the maximum bid. The \norganisers then opted for the method of drawing the name from the lots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMore\n than him being Sachin\u2019s son, he is doing very well for the last couple \nof years. There are very few all-rounders in Mumbai currently, and he is\n one of the upcoming ones. The added advantage is that he is a left-arm \nbowler,\u201d said the former Mumbai pacer Wilkin Mota, the coach of Aakash \nTigers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Son of legendary batsman Sachin Tendulkar, Arjun has \nplayed for India Under 19 team last year and been part of Mumbai junior \nteam. Three teams went on to bid for Arjun during initial stages before \nhe was picked by Aakash Tigers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meanwhile, MCA had to face some \nembarrassment after they had to withdraw the names of its Under-19 \nplayers who are part of National Cricket Academy few hours before the \nauction kicked off. Seven players who are part of the NCA cricket team \nwill be missing MPL this season as they will be playing their NCA games,\n which are also selection trials for the India Under-19 team, to be held\n in Surat in coming days.\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
