Can Mayank Agarwal make it BIG?

[speed_demon]

I 'm a fan of this special batsman from karnataka, been following him since his U19 days. He has been with RCB and have done reasonably well, and as he is maturing he is gaining confidence at the top level too. Just following his recent series in the CK Nayudu U25 Trophy scores, and he is going strong with an average of over 107 and strike rate which is always on the higher side when he is batting. He looks special to me be cause of his audacious capability of strokeplay which not many have in the current indian team too. But talent and consist performance is very hard to unite, but when unites creates a rare species. critics say he is good for T20 only, but i think otherwise, he has the talent to perform at any level and any format, hoping for him to continue doing what he is doing and break into the karnataka squad as soon as possible. http://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Events/17/CK_Nayudu_Trophy_2012-13/Batting_by_Runs.html Anybody has more info on him, please do share.

Well needs to break into Karnataka and play his first 1st class game, IPL has been hopeless at providing any sort of cursor to talent/capability for the longer form of the game.

He is an LOI prospect.

Bing!!! I hope he does really well in the IPL. Want him to break into the ODI / T20 squad ASAP. he has some real repertoire of SHOTS specially designed for the shorter version. Strengths: Explosive Batsman, packs a punch in his shots Has a nack of hitting 6ers. Vast range of shots Strong against Pace & Spin Good fielder Improving on consistency. Weakness: Little inconsistent. Has not been tested against high quality fast / spinners ( Steyn,Ajmal likes).

The problem for him is that he hardly ever gets a consistent run within RCB, and also he keeps getting shifted around the batting order.

No. But he might make it LARGE.
