Arjun Tendulkar takes key wicket in DY Patil T20 Cup 2026
A key moment in the match was the face-off between Tendulkar and Tejasvi Jaiswal, elder brother of Indian International player Yashasvi Jaiswal. During the tenth over of Nirlon’s innings, Tendulkar outsmarted Jaiswal with a well-placed delivery. Jaiswal, aiming to accelerate the scoring, shuffled across and attempted a shot off a ball pitched on middle and leg.
However, the ball’s bounce and pace caught him off guard, leading to a top edge that sent it skyward. The wicket-keeper kept his cool, tracked the ball, and successfully completed a straightforward catch to dismiss Jaiswal. This important wicket halted Nirlon’s momentum as Jaiswal left the field with 27 runs off 22 balls.
