Debutant Mayank Agarwal has put himself amongst an elite group of players after putting on good performances in the respective two innings of the third Test against Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Saturday.
Agarwal scored a gritty half-century (76) in his first outing in international cricket and then backed it up with a fighting 42 in the second. Agarwal’s show in the second essay was arguably more important than his first as he held the innings together when wickets were falling at regular intervals on the other.
