Son of Sachin: Arjun Tendulkar stuns cricket world with 'unplayable' ball

The cricket world is in a frenzy over an absolute peach of a delivery bowled by the 19-year-old son of Sachin Tendulkar.

Arjun Tendulkar is currently playing for the MCC Young Cricketers in the Second XI Championship in England.

Against Surrey recently, he produced an absolute jaffa that’s gone viral around the world.

As you can see in the video above, Tendulkar had opener Nathan Tilley bowled all ends up with a beautiful inswinger that crashed into the top of off stump.

The Lord’s Cricket Ground’s official Twitter account posted the video, writing: “Arjun Tendulkar, take a bow! He took this stunning wicket this morning for @MCCYC4L.”

Tendulkar also dismissed BBA Geddes, finishing with figures of 2-50 off 11 overs.

Sachin’s legacy

Arjun looks destined to follow in his father’s footsteps and play international cricket.

However the tall left-arm paceman is nothing like the diminutive right-handed batsman that his father is.

Last July, Arjun represented the India Under-19 team in the first Youth Test match against Sri Lanka, picking up another two wickets.

Despite playing in the imposing shadow of his father, Sachin has previously said he tries not to put pressure on Arjun.

"He is passionate and I have not forced him for anything. I never forced him to play cricket,” he said.

“He used to play football, then he developed interest in chess and now he is playing cricket.

"I told him whatever you do in life, don’t take a short-cut, which my father told me, and I tell him exactly the same thing.

“You will need to work hard and then it is up to you how you fare.”
