The Australia international was going through a rough patch in the cash-rich league, having scored only 55 runs in six matches so far. He was bought for INR 9 crore in the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/ipl\" rel=\"noopener\">IPL<\/a> 2025 mega-auction and was paired with <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/faf-du-plessis\" rel=\"noopener\">Faf du Plessis<\/a> at the top of the order. However, the South Africa international was ruled out for a while owing to an injury, and that helped Fraser-McGurk earn an extended run despite poor form.<\/p>\n<p>However, against Gujarat, Delhi decided to bench him against Gujarat without naming a replacement. Captain Axar Patel mentioned that they will take a call before going out to bat. As things stand, either <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/kl-rahul\" rel=\"noopener\">KL Rahul<\/a> or Karun Nair is expected to open the batting alongside Abishek Porel. Notably, Rahul has already done a commendable job at the top of the order and for the same reason, he might get the opportunity.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>More to Follow..<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async>\nfunction loadFacebookScript(){\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '529056027274737');\nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n}\nwindow.addEventListener('load', (event) => {\n\tsetTimeout(function(){\n        loadFacebookScript();\n\t}, 5000);\n});\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/sports\/cricket\/dc-drop-jake-fraser-mcgurk-from-playing-xi-captain-axar-patel-unsure-about-his-replacement-2025-04-19-986312\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Delhi Capitals drop Jake Fraser-McGurk from the playing XI.
