Mayank Agarwal

Mayank Agarwal's blistering 79-ball 90 helped Karnataka lift the Vijay Hazare trophy for the third time after a 41-run win over Saurashtra in the final at the Feroz Shah Kotla yesterday. Agarwal's standout performance powered Karnataka to 253 in 45.5 overs. In reply, Saurashtra were never in the reckoning despite skipper Cheteshwar Pujara's 94, an innings that was laced with 10 boundaries and a six. "The total was very chaseable, but we lost too many wickets in the middle and that was the difference," said Pujara.
