IPL 2024 DC Vs MI: Another day, another annihilation of bowlers. This IPL has been record-breaking in every sense. Every match we see someone destroying bowlers like nothing. But some batsmen still stand out.
One of them has been Jake Fraser McGurk, who has ruined every bowling lineup so far. After getting the green light from Delhi management to just hit the ball out of the park every time, he has been unstoppable.
Saturday was just the same, as McGurk kept finding boundaries no matter who the bowler was. He even hit Jasprit Bumrah for a six on his first delivery. The first time Bumrah’s economy touched 12 RPO in IPL 2024.
IPL 2024 DC Vs MI: Complete Destruction From McGurk
McGurk did not play the first few matches for Delhi. But after every top-order batsman failed, Delhi’s management decided to give McGurk a chance. And that was the best decision they have made in the whole season.
He took the attack to Mumbai and started hitting from the first ball itself. No matter who the bowler was, McGurk sent him back to the stands. Especially Hardik Pandya, who is bowling with an economy of 21 at the moment.
When Piyush Chawla finally got him out in the 8th over, McGurk had already scored 84 runs in just 27 deliveries with 11 fours and 6 sixes. In IPL 2024, McGurk has scored 217 runs in boundaries out of his total 247, which is just outrageous.
Standing Ovation From the Crowd
It was a freak knock and the Delhi crowd acknowledged that. He was on the verge of scoring the fastest IPL century. Delhi Capitals also registered their highest ever Powerplay total in IPL history with McGurk scoring more than 70% of those runs.
The crowd at Arun Jaitely Stadium acknowledged that and gave the youngster a standing ovation as he was walking back to the pavilion.
