Fraser-McGurk was picked up by the Capitals as an injury replacement last year, and he went on to score 330 runs in nine innings with four fifties during his maiden IPL. He finished with a strike rate of 234.04, the second-highest figure of the tournament.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The franchise did not retain him; instead, it purchased him at the IPL auction via the 'Right to Match' card for Rs 9 crores. But the youngster's T20I performances have dipped over the past 12 months; across his 24 most recent matches, he has managed 382 runs at 15.91 with a strike rate of 136.91.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"(Delhi) have shown great faith in keeping him at the franchise. It\u2019s important he starts well. What I do know of the IPL typically is that franchises and owners and coaches, don\u2019t tolerate a lack of results for too long.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cIf you start a tournament well, that buys you time to get deeper into it and feel comfortable, but Jake\u2019s aware that he\u2019ll need to fire from the start to make sure he can establish a strong tournament for himself and for his team,\" Gilchrist told Fox Cricket.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Gilchrist also predicted that Fraser-McGurk would flourish on Arun Jaitley Stadium\u2019s flat surface and short boundaries if he didn\u2019t go too hard, too early.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cThe wicket that he batted on was extraordinarily high-scoring last year. All the offerings will be there. It\u2019s up to him now to keep a level head on those opportunities.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cI think he\u2019s as level-headed as anyone, but just keeps a balance to execute his skills really well without getting too far ahead of himself. Like everyone, I\u2019m always excited watching him play, just fingers crossed he can play long innings,\" he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
