Mayank Agarwal

The out of favor Karnataka opener Mayank Agarwal had a fairy tale Ranji season last year. He scored a whopping 1160 runs in 13 innings at Bradmanesque average of 105.45. He scored five centuries with the highest score of 304.

Mayank, who ended the domestic season with 2141 runs has continued his form with impressive performances against the England Lions, South Africa A and Australia A.The selectors overlooking his prolific run has baffled many, but his chances are now brighter than ever to make his debut after the Indian opener's dismal run of form.
