Arjun Tendulkar’s Brief Training Stint with Yograj Singh
In a surprising turn of events, Arjun Tendulkar, son of legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, underwent a short training program under former India cricketer Yograj Singh in 2022. This association lasted only 12 days but was marked by a significant achievement as Arjun scored a hundred in the Ranji Trophy shortly after their training.
Yograj Singh’s Insights
Yograj, who has a cricket academy in Chandigarh, shared his thoughts on this brief collaboration. He revealed that following Arjun’s impressive performance and subsequent IPL contract, there were concerns about him being associated with Yograj’s name. “Sachin’s son comes here for 12 days and scores a hundred. After that, people feared his name would get stuck with me,” Yograj mentioned during an interview on ‘Unfiltered by Samdish’.
Yograj further elaborated on the fear of name association in the competitive world of cricket. “People are very afraid of name-sticking. I told Yuvi (Yuvraj Singh) to call Sachin and ask him to give me Arjun for a year. See what happens after that,” he added.
