'IPL doesn’t tolerate lack of results’: Gilchrist sounds alarm as out-of-form Australian young gun walks on thin ice

Hindustan Times  

Jake Fraser-McGurk heads into the 2025 Indian Premier League season under pressure to rediscover his explosive form and justify the faith Delhi Capitals have shown in him. Adam Gilchrist didn't mince his words as he talked about the Aussie youngster Fraser-McGurk had an electrifying start in the IPL after being drafted as an injury replacement in 2024, smashing 330 runs in nine innings at a staggering strike rate of 234.04. With the upcoming IPL season seen as a crucial opportunity for Fraser-McGurk to stake his claim for Australia's 2026 T20 World Cup squad, he will need to hit the ground running. He is expected to open the innings alongside Faf du Plessis, but former Australia wicketkeeper Adam Gilchrist has warned that IPL franchises are unforgiving when it comes to form slumps and that Fraser-McGurk must deliver from the outset. What I do know of the IPL typically is that franchises and owners and coaches, they don’t tolerate a lack of results for too long.” Conditions can help him Gilchrist believes that Fraser-McGurk could thrive on the batting-friendly surface at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, provided he paces his innings well.
