5 key Indian players in India's historic 2-1 win over Australia

#2 Mayank Agarwal

Mayank Agarwal made lots of difference for India in the last two Test matches for India as he was a replacement for injured Prithvi Shaw. As Murali Vijay and KL Rahul failed to give solid starts, the Indian team management decided to give Agarwal a chance. He responded well and played the Australian pacers and Nathan Lyon brilliantly.

After the success in domestic cricket and India A, Mayank Agarwal proved his worth for Team India. He scored 195 runs from 2 matches (3 innings) with the best score of 77 during the first innings of the fourth Test match played at Sydney.

In the third Test match at Melbourne, Agarwal provided a solid start putting on 40 runs for opening wicket. He made 72 runs in the first innings and gave the likes of Pujara, Kohli to build on a big total.
