CricketLet him play his own cricket: Kapil Dev on Arjun Tendulkar

Srinagar: Former India skipper has asked everyone to allow Arjun Tendulkar play his own cricket and don’t put lot of pressure on the youngster.

Arjun Tendulkar who is son pf Sachin Tendulkar was for the second successive season not given chance by Mumbai Indians in playing eleven despite being part of the team.

 

“Why is everyone talking about him? Because he is Sachin Tendulkar’s son. Let him play his own cricket and do not compare with Sachin. To have a Tendulkar name has perks and disadvantages as well. Don Bradman’s son changed his name because he could not soak that kind of pressure. He removed the sir name Bradman because everyone expected him to turn out like his father,” Kapil said on Uncut.

“Don’t put pressure on Arjun. He is a young boy. Who are we to say anything to him when he has the great Sachin as his father? But I would still just like to tell him one thing… Go and enjoy yourself. No need to prove anything. If you can become even 50 percent like your father… there is nothing better. When the name Tendulkar comes up, our expectations rise because Sachin was such a great,” Kapil Dev added.
