Dravid vs Tendulkar in Goa vs Karnataka match in KSCA Secretary XI for 2025-26 season
During the Goa vs Karnataka clash in the Karnataka State Cricket Association's Secretary XI ahead of the 2025-26 domestic season, Dravid met Tendulkar in a fiery battle as the scorecard went viral.

In an exciting game ahead of the 2025-26 domestic season, two cricket legends of world cricket, Sachhin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid’s sons, Arjun Tendulkar and Samit Dravid, faced each other in an interesting battle during the ongoing Dr K. Thimmappiah Memorial Tournament in Bengaluru.
Preparing for another season with Goa after taking leave from his home base, Mumbai, Arjun has tried his best to earn success over the years, and in the KSA Secretary XI game, the junior India batter made an early impact by dismissing captain Nikin Jose for eight-ball duck in the third opener after getting into the battle with Samit in the same innings.
Samit, who missed the cut for the U-19 World Cup for next year, is along moving up the ranks and has been named among the probable for the forthcoming Ranji Trophy season. The 19-year-old spent time out of the game with injury since mid-2024 and walked at number five to falter their innings at 91/3.

After striking a boundary within the first two balls he faced, Dravid was dismissed by Tendulkar for nine runs off 26 deliveries with the scorecard showing buzz in the social media platforms. At the end of the day’s play, KSCA was reduced to 245/8 with Arjun being the peak of the Goa bowlers, thanks to his figures of 3/50 in 17 overs. Goa had racked up 338 on the board in their first innings, where Samit had chipped in with 2/18 in nine overs.
In the same clash, Karun Nair also turned up at number four. Having been overlooked for the ongoing India A squad against Australia at home, Nair is focused to be back in the Indian squad for the two-match home Test series against the West Indies, after a poor time in England during the five-match Test series.
But it wasn’t a promising turnaround for Nair, who ended with three runs in 21 balls. In trying to go up his former Karnataka team-mate, V Kousik, who had switched to Goa ahead of the fresh season, he lost his wicket. The reports claimed that the veteran is unlikely to get selected for the West Indies Tests with Devdutt Padikkal likely to return.
