I have heard of only one debate which was between Adi Shankaracharya and Mandana Mishra. Can you list some important debates other than the aforementioned one? Are there any scriptures/books which contain such debates?

2One such debate was hosted by Bhaskararaya at Lalitaghat. Debate of Adishankar in Nepal(where Neela Saraswati asked him to leave Nepal instanstly), debate of Bandi & Ashtavakra, Debate of Keshava Kashmiri & Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, debate of Sarvanada & Kabir, debate of Ramanujacharya & Jain Charvakas, there are endless debates in Tamil, & many such more to go.– Chamunda dasJul 10, 2022 at 19:33

There is an entire chapter about the debate between Vidushi Gargi and Rishi Yajnavalkya in Brihadaranyaka Upanishad.
Another famous shastrarth is between Kumaril Bhatt and other Buddhist scholars.
