Sachin Tendulkar and his son Arjun NEW DELHI: Former Indian cricketer Yograj Singh surprised fans with his comments about Arjun Tendulkar, son of cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar. Yograj believes that Arjun is actually a better batsman than people think, but the coaches mostly focused only on his bowling.

In an interview with Ravish Bisht on YouTube, he asked why coaches are not paying attention to Arjun’s batting.He said: “You just focus on his bowling. What are you doing? What happened? There are so many coaches, what are they doing? He is basically a batsman. When he came to me, he was there for about 12-13 days.”“I welcomed him. They told me to take care of him and I told them not to worry. One day he got hit by a ball and we took him to the doctor and he was fine. So I told him to put the pads on to bat instead.” Yograj revealed that Arjun himself felt that his batting was being ignored.He added: “He told me they weren’t focusing on his batting. So I said we’ll see because I haven’t seen him bat yet. He was hitting boundaries everywhere in the nets and then I asked his coach why he didn’t get the batting. I also told him he was a great quality batsman, he batted like his father.”Arjun Tendulkar is often seen as a bowling all-rounder in domestic cricket.However, his batting numbers have not been very impressive so far. He averages 21.37 in first-class cricket, 18.25 in List A matches and 13.5 in T20s. Still, he showed promise with the bat. On his Ranji Trophy debut against Rajasthan in 2022, he scored a hundred while batting at number seven. He also has two half centuries in red ball cricket. Recently, Arjun was given more responsibility with the bat while playing for Goa. He was asked to open the innings in Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and Vijay Hazare Trophy. In Goa’s last List A match against Mumbai, Arjun opened the innings and scored 24 runs off 27 balls before getting to Shardul Thakur. In the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, he scored only 70 runs in five innings, at an average of 14, which was disappointing.
