5 reasons why Mayank Agarwal should have replaced Virat Kohli in the 2nd Test

#4 Reality check for Mayank - where he stands

However, now that he was drafted into the Test squad for the first time, a debut would have given him a reality check of where he stands, and what he needs to improve in his game in order to succeed at the top-most level.

Even though the opposition is West Indies, the chance of playing international cricket, the nerves and the adjustment that has to be made - Mayank would have got a first-hand experience.
