Sachin Tendulkar himself was an opener. But it seems that his son Arjun Tendulkar does not like the opening pair to stay on the wicket. This is the reason why he has been seen taking action against the openers of the opposing team in the Ranji Trophy. In Ranji Trophy, Goa defeated Sikkim by a huge margin of an innings and 53 runs. Arjun Tendulkar took 6 wickets while making a great contribution to Goa's victory. This is the second consecutive first-class match in which Arjun Tendulkar has taken 5 or more wickets.

Arjun Tendulkar took 2 wickets in the first innings.

In the match, Sikkim won the toss and decided to bat first. But, its batting line-up failed in front of Goa's tight bowling and the entire team collapsed after scoring just 108 runs in the first innings. In the first innings, Arjun Tendulkar took 2 wickets for Goa, out of which one wicket was of Sikkim opener Arun Chhetri. Apart from him, Darshan Mesai and Mohit Redkar also got 2-2 wickets. Whereas Heramb Parab took 3 wickets.

Goa declared its first innings at 367 runs for 4 wickets. In this way, it gained a huge lead of 259 runs. Goa scored two centuries in the first innings. Siddharth scored an unbeaten 130 runs while Manthan scored 104 runs. Apart from these, Suyash Prabhudesai scored 54 runs.

Arjun Tendulkar took 4 wickets in the second innings.

Now Sikkim had the challenge of setting a target for Goa after overcoming the huge lead of 259 runs, which they failed to achieve. This is because, in the second innings, Goa's bowlers wreaked havoc on Sikkim's batsmen even more. Arjun Tendulkar and Darshan Mesai, who took 2-2 wickets in the first innings, took 4-4 wickets in the second innings. The result was that Goa's second innings was reduced to 206 runs and they lost the match.

The end of the openers, this amazing feat in the second consecutive match!

Arjun Tendulkar, who had dismissed only one opener of Sikkim in the first innings, dismissed both their openers in the second innings. This was the second consecutive first-class match for Arjun Tendulkar in which he took 5 or more wickets. Earlier, he had taken 5 wickets in both the innings combined in the match against Gujarat.
