Mayank Agarwal is one of the unluckiest players in the present Indian Cricket setup. He has performed brilliantly in Ranji Trophy and other domestic competitions. He has been a prolific scorer in the Ranji Trophy.
Agarwal has been knocking the doors of the Indian team for quite some time now. He is an opener and he should have ideally been India's fourth Opener behind Murali Vijay, KL Rahul and Shikhar Dhawan for the England series.
What happened though was completely different as a young Prithvi Shaw was selected into the Indian team ahead of a proven performer in Agarwal when the selectors decided to replace Murali Vijay.
Agarwal has been selected for the West Indies Test Series but he is unlikely to get a game as Shaw will most likely be handed a debut ahead of him. The entire concept of picking Shaw who was brilliant in IPL ahead of Agarwal who has performed for years together would baffle most cricket followers.
