Apart from the domestic circuit, Arjun Tendulkar also performed in the Indian Premier League. The left-arm pacer played for Mumbai Indians in the league. He has been with the franchise for a long time, but due to the team merger, he didn’t get much opportunity for the team.
But in the limited opportunities that Tendulkar had, he did not live up to expectations. The all-rounder played 4 games for the team in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 and picked 3 wickets in the season. He then played one game in 2024 and did not pick a wicket.
