Australian cricketer Jake Fraser-McGurk, who made a sensational IPL debut in 2024 with 330 runs in nine innings at a strike rate of 234.04, has experienced a significant decline in form. Over the past 24 innings, he has averaged 15.91 with a strike rate of 136.91. Despite this downturn, the Delhi Capitals retained him for ₹9 crore, anticipating a resurgence in the upcoming season. Former Australian wicketkeeper Adam Gilchrist emphasized the IPL's unforgiving nature, stating, "Franchises... don’t tolerate a lack of results for too long." He stressed the importance of Fraser-McGurk starting the season well to maintain his position.
