IPL 2022: [Watch] "The one and only, Arjun Tendulkar" - Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah interact with Mumbai Indians youngsters
Mumbai Indians (MI) focused on team bonding on the sixth day of their training camp ahead of IPL 2022.
Rohit Sharma interacted with all-rounder Arjun Tendulkar, Kieron Pollard received his official gear, Ishan Kishan played with a toy gun at the 'MI Arena', and Jasprit Bumrah poked fun at the youngsters.
All of this was compiled into a short video uploaded on the franchise's official YouTube channel.
Rohit can be seen introducing Arjun to the camera, calling him "the one and only Arjun Tendulkar" and then asking the young left-handed pacer about the well-being and whereabouts of his family in Marathi.
The video then moved to a bleary-eyed Pollard receiving his kit in his hotel room. The West Indies white-ball captain met Rohit at the 'MI Arena', where all coaches and players were present.
Bumrah was seen inquiring about something from batting all-rounder Sanjay Yadav before having a good laugh about the subject.

The video is likely from the Trident Bandra Kurla Complex, where the Mumbai Indians players are staying for a 12-day camp in the leadup to their first match against the Delhi Capitals on March 27.
Arjun's father, the legendary Sachin Tendulkar, a former Mumbai Indians player himself, is the IPL team icon and mentor.
Arjun has been at the franchise since IPL 2021. He was signed for INR 30 lakh in this year's IPL mega auction. He is yet to make his IPL debut but has featured in two domestic T20s, picking up a wicket in each.
Yadav, meanwhile, has played 27 T20s for Meghalaya and Tamil Nadu, collecting 494 runs and 16 wickets, both at an average of around 27.
