Chairman MSK Prasad responded over the concern saying that Mayank Agarwal will get chance soon.
"Mayank Agarwal has been fantastic and has been consistent in the last 10-12 months. He is just a step away and I am sure in due course of time he will get his recognition," he said.
"And he did well In all three formats in whatever opportunities he has got in domestic cricket. We will definitely look at it when we rest some of the senior players," MSK Prasad assured.
