“I’m Not Going To Give Up” Says Mayank Agarwal of India’s Future. “I’ll be very happy with whatever comes my way, but aspirations and dreams never die,” Mayank Agarwal said of rejoining the Indian team.
Mayank Agarwal’s international career took off on a high note when he helped India win their first-ever Test series in Australia in 2018-19. However, after three years, he has been pushed down the pecking order in both Tests and ODIs, and he has yet to earn a T20I cap. His cause was not helped by a poor IPL 2022 campaign. But the 31-year-old is undeterred in his pursuit of a return to the national team.
“I am someone who isn’t going to give up,” Mayank Agarwal said of his future in international cricket to ESPNcricinfo.
“I’m going to keep chasing it and working on my game every day. I’ll be content with whatever comes my way, but my ambitions and dreams will live on “the first batter added “It’s about getting out there, improving, and checking off all the boxes.”

Mayank Agarwal has worked on his white-ball game after finishing IPL 2022
He had 196 runs from 12 innings, and the results can be seen in the Maharaja Trophy, Karnataka’s local T20 tournament.
While leading Bengaluru Blasters, the right-hander has scored 480 runs at a strike rate of 167.24 in 11 appearances. He has a career average of 53.33 and two centuries.
“I’ve worked really hard on my batting over the last four months. As you can see, I’ve begun sweeping and reverse-sweeping the ball, and this is against fast bowlers “Agarwal spoke about his efforts to improve his limited-overs batting.
“I’ve opened up four or five new areas in my game that are paying off handsomely. I am overjoyed that my hard work is finally paying off “He continued.
“It feels incredible to score two hundreds in a T20 tournament like the Maharaja Trophy. It feels great when the players respond to you the way you want them to. Obviously, running behind my back feels great, and then I can lead from the front “He stated.
Mayank’s heroics have propelled the Bengaluru Blasters to the Maharaja Trophy final, where they will face either the Gulbarga Mystics or the Mysuru Warriors on Friday.
