    "editor1": "<p><strong>Pune, Oct 11:&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;Opener Mayank Agarwal on Thursday scored his 2nd Test century and helped India take a strong position on Day 1 of the second Test against South Africa here as the hosts ended the day on 273\/3 with skipper Virat Kohli (63 not out) and Ajinkya Rahane (18 not out) at the crease.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>It was Mayank&#39;s second ton in as many Tests after he notched up his maiden Test century (215) in the first innings of the previous Test in Visakhapatnam.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Mayank&#39;s effort has drawn praises from different quarters and his teammate Cheteshwar Pujara reckoned the Karnataka batsman has learnt the art of conversion from the first-class cricket.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Mayank and Pujara shared 138 runs for the second wicket before the latter was dismissed for a well-made 58.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;He (Mayank) is an experienced player who has scored a lot of runs in first-class cricket, which has helped him a lot. When it comes to the nervous 90s, he is someone who is fearless,&quot; Pujara said after the day&#39;s play.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Mayank knows how to convert fifties into big scores. Once he goes past hundred, he can score heavily as we saw in the last game,&quot; added Pujara.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>When asked if he had advised anything to Mayank during their partnership, the 31-year-old replied: &quot;The habit (of scoring big) has come from first-class cricket, so I didn&#39;t have to tell him much. To be honest, we were just communicating what their gameplan was.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;If there was an error in his batting, I would just tell him to play close to his body. Apart from that, he is batting really well and you don&#39;t have to guide him much,&quot; Pujara said.<\/p>\r\n",
