Continuing his dream run i꧂n the longest format of the game, India opener Mayank Agarwal scored a sensational double century in the first innings of the series opener 💫against Bangladesh at the Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore.
Agarwal, who is a natural stroke player and likes to feel the ball on the willow, looked in supreme touch against the🧔 Bangladesh Tigers on Friday. He slammed 25 boundaries and five sixes en route to the double ton, his second in a span of just four Te🍸st matches.
The 28-year-old had earlier slammed an unforgettable double hundrജed against South Africa in Vizag.
However, his inning꧃s in the Indore Test is something special as the pitch was aiding the bowlers but Agarwal kept his cool, picked the bad deliveries, and continu꧙ed his cracking run of form with the bat.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to the Mayank Agarwal show:

When I set eyes on Mayank Agarwal the first time, it was during the under 19 WC in NZ, he looked a little re𒉰plica of Virender Sehwag. Today he got to his 200💞 in true Sehwag style! 👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏
