Arjun, who is over six-foot in height, is an aspiring left-arm pacer.
He has made several appearances for the domestic teams and has also bowled at nets to several renowned batsmen.
Recently, Arjun had the Indian media in a frenzy when he sent England wicket-keeper batsman Jonny Bairstow packing in the nets with a brilliant yorker ahead of a Test series.

While it is still too early to tell, Arjun Tendulkar might just play for the national team in future.
For his age, he is experienced, having played across the globe.
Moreover, pacers are always in demand, more so, if they are tall and can bowl good speeds.
If he keeps his head down, there is every possibility of him following in his father's footsteps.
