MI vs SRH: Arjun Tendulkar's first IPL wicket comes in last over of tight run-chase- WATCH

Arjun Tendulkar picked up his maiden IPL wicket as Mumbai Indians defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad on their home turf. Batting first, Mumbai posted a healthy 192 runs on the board as Cameron Green registered his maiden half-century in this cash-rich tournament. The home team, Hyderabad, then kept losing wickets at regular intervals and were bowled out for 178 in 19.5 overs.

Arjun was asked to bowl the last over and he kept his composure by maintaining a tight line and length. He finally got the breakthrough as Bhuvneshwar Kumar got an edge and skipper Rohit Sharma had an easy catch at extra cover. This is Arjun's second IPL match and he stamped his authority with a brilliant display for Mumbai Indians.

On being asked about his planning, the 23-year-old replied, "My plan was to just bowl wide and get the batsmen hitting into the longer side. I was itching to bowl, yes. I love bowling and happy to bowl any time. We [Sachin and him] talk a lot about cricket. We talk tactics and plans. I just focused on my release and the lengths I want to bowl. If it swings, it is a bonus; if it doesn't, so be it."

Three wins in a row for the @mipaltan as they beat #SRH by 14 runs to add two key points to their tally.
