Mumbai Indians (MI) and Gujarat Titans (GT) clashed against each other in the 35th match of the Indian Premier League 2023 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Tuesday, April 26. The defending champions displayed a brilliant all-round performance and defeated the five-time champions convincingly by 55 runs.
Meanwhile, a video is getting viral on social media from the match, in which MI’s allrounder and former legendary Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar’s son Arjun Tendulkar was seen picking his nose. After he appeared to pick his nostril, the 23-year-old proceeded to lick the same hand. Fans were stunned by what they saw and many quickly took to social media to share their shock.

Since making his IPL debut, Arjun has been in the spotlight, and the internet is buzzing over his first IPL wicket which he got in his second match. The young bowler held Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) to just five runs in the final over while also picking up a wicket to enable Mumbai Indians to defeat them by 14 runs. However, in the next match, he was smashed by Punjab Kings’ batters for 31 runs in a single over.
Brilliant performance by GT
But he made a brilliant comeback against GT as he conceded only 9 runs and also picked up a wicket in the 2 overs he bowled. However, other bowlers couldn’t produce anything special as the Hardik Pandya-led team belted almost every ball out of the park and amassed a monumental total of 207 runs after losing 6 wickets in 20 overs. Thanks to Shubman Gill (56 off 34), Abhinav Manohar (42 off 21), and David Miller (46 off 22).
In reply, once again Mohammed Shami and Pandya made it look like GT were offered a different pitch to bowl on with the amount of swing they were able to generate. Rohit Sharma fell cheaply, and MI just couldn't break loose in the powerplay. Then came Rashid Khan and Noor Ahmad, as the two Afghan spinners caused the opposition so many problems in the middle-overs and restricted MI to just 152.
Here's how fans reacted:
