LSG vs MI: Arjun Tendulkar Gets Bitten By Dog Ahead Of Match Number 63 Of Tata IPL 2023

Arjun Tendulkar, 23, was bitten by a dog on Tuesday before MI’s IPL 2023 match against the Lucknow Super Giants at the Ekana Stadium. As a result, the 23-year-old’s return to the Mumbai Indians playing XI is likely to be further delayed. Tendulkar Jr.’s little adventure’s location has not yet been determined. After he admitted to the bizarre incident in a video posted by LSG on their Twitter handle, who last played for MI against Gujarat Titans on April 25, is set to miss tonight’s match.

Arjun Tendulkar gets bit by a dog

Arjun has taken three wickets in four IPL 2023 matches for MI, with a best of 1/9 against the Titans. He was left out of MI’s playing XI after four games, and he has been benched since, with Akash Madhwal and Kumar Kartikeya in the team. Be that as it may, with Tilak Varma nursing a physical issue, the chances of Arjun’s re-visitation of the XI looked brilliant before this unanticipated episode occurred.

Debut of Arjun Tendulkar

Arjun made his debut against the Kolkata Knight Riders, bowling two overs and scoring 1/17. Arjun took his first IPL wicket against Sunrisers Hyderabad, dismissing Bhuvneshwar Kumar and preventing 21 runs from being scored in the final over. The wickets shot him into the spotlight, with everybody—Sachin Tendulkar, Rohit Sharma, Sunil Gavaskar, Brett Lee, and some more—observing him. Arjun, on the other hand, was hammered for 48 runs in the subsequent match against the Punjab Kings, allowing 31 runs in an over. As a result, many people felt that Arjun wasn’t quite ready. Against the Titans, he got to bat without precedent for his young IPL vocation and smoked a casual six before getting dropped.
