Arjun Tendulkar pictured getting ‘words of wisdom’ from Ravi Shastri, Gone viral
Arjun Tendulkar, who has been selected as part of India’s U19 team recently, spent some time with Team India head coach Ravi Shastri and got some valuable advice. The Twitter handle of The Board Of Control For Cricket In India (BCCI) shared the picture of Arjun Tendulkar and Ravi Shastri. “Words of wisdom from @RaviShastriOfc for young Arjun Tendulkar,” the BCCI’s post read. Arjun was selected in India’s under-19 squad for the tour of Sri Lanka in July. He will also attend a U-19 camp at the National Cricket Academy under the supervision of WV Raman and Sanath Kumar ahead of the tour of Sri Lanka.
Delhi’s Anuj Rawat will captain the Indian side in the four-day series, while UP’s Aryan Juyal will lead the ODI team.
However, Arjun isn’t new to the Indian set up. Last year, he bowled to the likes of Virat Kohli and his Indian team-mates in the nets at the Wankhede stadium. He had also bowled to the England Test team in nets.

However, many people were not impressed.
Many Twitter users started trolling BCCI for posting the picture. They asked that why a photo of Arjun Tendulkar was posted on BCCI’s handle while other young players did not get the same treatment and attention.

It is this kind of extra publicity space elite’s children get beyond a level playing field, shatters the ambition of hard working kids.
