Arjun Tendulkar's IPL debut didn't pave the way he would have liked but he received plaudits from all over the world for donning the Mumbai Indians jersey against Kolkata Knight Riders. The left-arm bowler did show some promise on the pitch and it remains to be seen whether he gets to play for the franchise again in this season. Earlier, Sachin Tendulkar penned an heartfelt note following the debut of his son.

Sachin and Arjun became the first father-son duo to play in the Indian Premier League since its inception. Sachin took to Twitter to post an inspirational note. "Arjun, today you have taken another important step in your journey as a cricketer. As your father, someone who loves you and is passionate about the game, I know you will continue to give the game the respect it deserves and the game will love you back.

"You have worked very hard to reach here, and I am sure you will continue to do so. This is the start of a beautiful journey. All the best!"
