Under the watchful eyes of Saqlain Mushtaq (England's spin bowling consultant), Arjun was seen with an orange t-shirt.
The 19-year-old is currently in England, representing MCC Young Cricketers in the Second XI Championship in England.
He recently hit the limelight with an excellent delivery against a Surrey 2nd XI' batsman. The delivery was so good, that it hit the top of his off-stump!
The wicket was tweeted by Lord's Cricket Ground's official Twitter handle. It was captioned as, "Arjun Tendulkar, take a bow!"
Arjun is slowly developing into an upcoming cricketer. He was excellent in the Vinoo Mankad Trophy in November 2018. His figures were 5/30, as Mumbai beat Gujarat. He also put in figures of 3/14 in his side's win over Assam.
