IPL 2023: Will Arjun Tendulkar make his debut against CSK? Coach Mark Boucher gives insight
For the unversed, Rohit was asked in IPL 2023 pre-season press conference whether Arjun will get a chance in IPL 2023 season after failing to get one 2022 season. Rohit left that answer to Boucher, who later revealed that Arjun is suffering an injury. The all-rounder did not take part in MI’s first game against RCB due to the same reason, and it is still not clear if Arjun has recovered from the injury ahead of MI’s clash against CSK.
MI are coming off an eight-wicket thrashing against RCB and would be desperate to turn the tide against Super Kings. MS Dhoni-led CSK have played two games, and winning one against LSG, losing against GT. The two teams have clashed 36 times in IPL, with MI leading the content with 21 wins. CSK have won 15 games.
