After amassing 225 runs in IPL 2012, Mayank enjoyed stellar success from 2019-2023 in the cash-rich league. He last played an ODI for India in 2020 following which he has been out of favour in terms of selection to the national side. Well, his performaces in VHT indicate that he is far from over and has a lot more left in him. Agarwal’s IPL journey is also not over just as yet. Despite going unsold in IPL 2025 auction, the former PBKS star still has a chance of featuring in the tournament if he is named as an injury replacement in any of the sides.
