With his innings of 108 on the first day of the second Test against South Africa, Mayank has now got hundreds in successive Tests. Speaking to the official broadcasters after the day’s play, Mayank said: “I’m very happy that I could get back-to-back hundreds, that’s a good feeling. It was always about mental discipline.”Muralidhar said that it is “persistence” that has worked wonders for Mayank. “Persistence is one thing that sets him apart… It is not that his career has been flowing smoothly always. We had a lengthy chat, an emotional one.”And is there anything that Mayank has to work on to improve?
