The compact right-hander remained unbeaten at Tea on 108 &#8211; a knock studded with 9 fours and a six with Rest of India at 196\/3 on Day 3. This is the <!-- -->Bengal<!-- --> batter&#8217;s third hundred in as many games as he scored two hundreds in the recently concluded Duleep Trophy too.<\/p>\n<p>The 29-year-old has consistently been among the top run-getters for Bengal in the domestic circuit.

He has represented India A in multiple tours, further showcasing his potential to break into the Indian national team.<br \/>He was named in the standby list for India&#8217;s Test squad during the <!-- -->Border-Gavaskar Trophy<!-- --> 2020-21 against Australia and was part of the squad for the England Test series in 2021 and 2022 but is yet to make an appearance for the senior side.<br \/>There are options in Ruturaj Gaikwad, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/mayank-agarwal\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" frmappuse=\"1\">Mayank Agarwal<\/a> and Sai Sudharsan for the reserve opener slot but Abhimanyu is ensuring he has the adequate weight of runs behind him to present a strong case.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\nvar _mfq = window._mfq || [];\n_mfq.push([\"setVariable\", \"toi_titan\", window.location.href]);\n!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    function loadFBEvents(isFBCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isFBCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        if (f.fbq) return;\n        n = f.fbq = function() {\n          n.callMethod ? n.callMethod(...arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n        };\n        if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n        n.push = n;\n        n.loaded = !0;\n        n.version = '2.0';\n        n.queue = [];\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js', n, t, s);\n      fbq('init', '593671331875494');\n      fbq('track', 'PageView');\n    };\n    function loadGtagEvents(isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      var id = document.getElementById('toi-plus-google-campaign');\n      if (id) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        t.id = 'toi-plus-google-campaign';\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/www.googletagmanager.com\/gtag\/js?id=AW-877820074', n, t, s);\n    };\n    function loadSurvicateJs(allowedSurvicateSections = []){\n      const section =  window.location.pathname.split('\/')[1]\n      const isHomePageAllowed = window.location.pathname === '\/' && allowedSurvicateSections.includes('homepage')\n      if(allowedSurvicateSections.includes(section) || isHomePageAllowed){\n        (function(w) {\n         function setAttributes() {\n                    var prime_user_status = window.isPrime ?
