He played most of his cricket under the legendary Col. C.K. Nayudu and later under the patronage of H.H. Maharana Bhagwat Singhji of Mewar (Udaipur).<br /> <br /> == Coaching era ==<br /> Naidu later became the director of cricket operations in the state of Mewar. Under his guidance the team did fairly well, eventually with the patronage of H.H. Maharana Bhagwat Singhji (who was from same school as Mr. Naidu) and later sports board of Rajasthan, and National Institute of Sports. In those times the Rajasthan team did very well in domestic cricket, reaching Ranji Trophy Finals 9 times in the 60&#039;s and 70&#039;s. Back in the day - many top players played for Rajputana team, the likes of Vinoo Manked, V.L. Manjerekar and S. P. Gupte Salim Durrani.<br /> <br /> He was a stalwart of cricket in Rajasthan and under his coaching, many players emerged on the national scene from the state viz - Hanumant Singh, Kailash Gattani, Laxman Singh Boheda, Suryaveer Singh, Gajendra S Shaktawat and Suryaveer Singh Boheda. He coached at City Palace Cricket, Udaipur.<br /> <br /> == career highlights- Ranji Trophy Finals ==<br /> #http://static.espncricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/1950S/1952-53/IND_LOCAL/RANJI/HOLKAR_BENG_RJI-FINAL_20-24MAR1953.html<br /> #http://static.espncricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/1950S/1951-52/IND_LOCAL/RANJI/BOM_HOLKAR_RJI-FINAL_01-05MAR1952.html<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> {{reflist}}<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> * {{ESPNcricinfo|id=31841}}<br /> <br /> {{DEFAULTSORT:Naidu, Arjun}}<br /> [[Category:1924 births]]<br /> [[Category:2000 deaths]]<br /> [[Category:Indian cricketers]]<br /> [[Category:Rajasthan cricketers]]<br /> <br /> <br /> {{India-cricket-bio-1920s-stub}}</div> ->Editrite!
