50 on debut for Mayank Agarwal

[Trichromatic]

Boxing day match, 60k crowd, MCG, and 50 on debut while opening for your side.

 

Great start.

[Khota]

It is great indeed. Wish Rohit was opening but this is a good team that is playing.

[Straight Drive]

Excellent debut

Unlucky caught at stroke of tea.

But played out 2 sessions of day-1.

A century was there for the taking, but good debut

He will have tons of chances to score more 100s along with Prithvi shaw. Giving chances to domestic performers in a timely fashion is important. This is an example. SHould have done the same with ODI side as well. Sticking with oldies have stifled us from growing.

Now watch out Mayank for your captain, who will be gunning for your head from now on. You took away his pretty spotlight and he is not going to like it.

He got chance because kohli played him. Not everything is a conspiracy.

Thats how it is for everyone. These openers got their chances and they blew it in England, SA and now. Their is no conspiracy of kohli not picking someone.

Just left to Kohli we would have seen dhawan playing here. Everyone knows he just doesn't like to give any youngsters a chance, just look at the odi team.

superb crucial inns by Mayank. Always thought he had it in him to be successful than some one like Rahul. He has better balanced body frame and hence better reflexes to react as per the  trajectory of the ball and that showed in this inns.
