The Indian cricket team has finally found someone to handle the onus of the opening department, who is solid both at home and away. After all the recent struggles that saw a flurry of openers losing their sheen, the entry of Mayank Agarwal solves so much of the issues. A champion domestic player, Mayank let everyone know about his intentions at the end of last year when he made his much-awaited debut against the Aussies at the MCG.

On his eighth innings in Tests, Mayank stood like a rock to notch an impressive double century against South Africa in the first Test against South Africa in Vizag. To come out and amass a maiden ton and then converting it into a double was a sweet effort by the Karnataka batsman.
