Earlier in 2020 during an interview, Danielle revealing about her first meeting with Arjun and Sachin said that she met the father-son duo at Lords when she was with the MCC young crickters.
Cricket.com quoted Danielle as saying, “So, I first met Sachin and Arjun at Lord’s Cricket Ground. Maybe 2009 or 2010 when I was with MCC young cricketers, and they were training in the nets. Literally, I went to the nets and said hello and introduced myself, saying I am Danni, etc.”

Since then whenever I bump into Sachin or Arjun or whenever they come to Lord’s to train, I go to the nets and ask him (Arjun) to bowl with the new ball to me.”

Elaborating Arjun’s skills, the England player said that Arjun has managed to increase his pace by a decent margin in recent times. She recalled that the youngster has the ability to knock a batsman’s head off, so she doesn’t like him bowling to me anymore.
