Former India cricketer aur Yuvraj Singh ke father, Yograj Singh ne ek zabardast statement diya hai jo Arjun Tendulkar ke career ko completely change kar sakta hai. Unhone kaha hai ki agar Arjun ko sahi guidance mile – especially from Yuvraj Singh – toh woh next Chris Gayle ban sakta hai!
Abhi Arjun Tendulkar Mumbai Indians ke IPL 2025 squad ka hissa hai, jise franchise ne ₹30 lakh mein auction se kharida tha. Lekin ab tak usse playing XI mein mauka nahi mila hai. Yograj Singh ne yeh bhi bataya ki unhone khud Arjun ko train kiya tha, jahan unhone zyada focus Arjun ke batting skills pe diya.
“Arjun ke liye maine kaha tha, bowling se zyada batting pe dhyaan de. Aur agar Yuvraj – jo Sachin ka close dost hai – usse sirf teen mahine ke liye train kare, toh main guarantee deta hoon ki woh Chris Gayle ban sakta hai. Kabhi-kabhi fast bowlers ko injury ke baad waise bowling nahi karne milti, toh unhe backup plan chahiye hota hai. Arjun ko Yuvraj ke hawale kar dena chahiye,” Yograj ne CricketNext ko bataya.
Lekin kahani mein ek twist bhi hai. Yograj ne ye bhi reveal kiya ki Arjun ne training chhod di thi kyunki usse dar tha ki log usse sirf Yograj Singh ka trainee samjhenge – aur apni identity khud establish karna chahta tha.
Arjun ka domestic performance bhi mix raha hai. Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25 mein usne do innings mein 40 runs banaye aur teen matches mein 4 wickets liye. Ranji Trophy mein usne 3 innings mein 51 runs banaye, average 17 ka tha. Lekin bowling mein chha gaya – 4 matches mein 16 wickets, ek baar 5-wicket haul bhi nikala!
Wahin Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy mein Arjun ka performance thoda dull raha – 2 matches mein sirf 21 runs aur 1 wicket. Lekin Yograj Singh ka maanna hai ki agar Sachin Tendulkar ne thoda sa trust dikhaya aur Yuvraj Singh ko mentor banaya, toh Arjun ek all-round powerhouse ban sakta hai!
Toh kya Arjun Tendulkar ka next transformation Yuvraj ke under hone wala hai? IPL fans aur cricket world definitely dekh raha hai is story ko closely!
