Mayank Agarwal could have easily been the highest run-getter in this Duleep Trophy if it were not for Cheteshwar Pujara’s unreal performances. He recorded 1 hundred and 4 fifties in 5 innings, displaying his consistency through the course of the tournament.

He opened the innings with Gautam Gambhir and the duo proved to be almost impossible to dislodge. His highlight of the tournament came in the penultimate game, where he scored a brisk 169 off 218 balls to help his team post 707 on the board.

The 25-year-old from Bangalore looks set to make inroads into the Indian team soon if he continues in this rich vein of form.
