What is Jake Fraser-McGurk's salary in IPL 2024?

Jake Fraser-McGurk has been in sublime form in the IPL 2024. The Australian batter has been one of the most aggressive batters in the league. He has scored runs for fun at a good rate in the matches he has played so far. Replacing giants like Mitchell Marsh and David Warner in the XI, Jake has turned out to be an MVP for DC. The 2020 finalists have won four of their five games with McGurk in the XI.

In five matches in the season so far, the right-handed batter has scored 247 runs at a batting average of 49.40 at an astonishing SR of 237.50, including three fifties to his name. In the latest match against Mumbai Indians, the DC opener smashed 84 runs in 27 balls, which included 11 fours and 6 sixes. The young batter hit boundaries off some of the best bowlers in the world like Jasprit Bumrah. 

Even against other opponents, he has batted well. In his debut, McGurk scored 55 runs in 35 balls, which included two fours and five sixes. In the game against SRH, the aggressive batter smashed 65 runs in just 18 balls. Against GT, he registered 20 runs in 10 balls while chasing 90 runs. Against the same opponent, he scored 23 runs in 14 balls at home. The hitting arc of the stylish batter is amazing. When there is no movement off the air or deck, he becomes nearly unstoppable. 

What's the salary of Jake Fraser-McGurk in IPL 2024?

Jake Fraser-McGurk was born on the 11th of April in 2002. He is a part of the BBL and plays for Melbourne Renegades. In the IPL 2024, the Australian made his debut for Delhi Capitals. In the Sheffield Shield, he plays for Victoria. Once Glenn Maxwell had described him as the most exciting talent to watch out for. So far, the young batter has lived up to the expectations by performing well in T20 leagues. 

DC was rather lucky to have McGurk in their squad. The youngster was not a part of the initial squad. However, Lungi Ngidi was ruled out of the season due to an injury. Due to the exciting performances of McGurk in the BBL 2023/24, DC recognized the potential of the 22-year-old and got him onboard for the base price of INR 20 lakhs. It happens to be his salary in the maiden signing. It has probably been the steal of the season so far.

For such a lesser prize, the right-handed batter has played beyond expectations and made a name for himself. Due to his performances in the ongoing IPL, the star batter is being asked to be taken by Australia for the T20 WC 2024. The form of David Warner and the injury of Mitchell Marsh have only strengthened the opinions. If everything goes well, McGurk might actually be picked in Australia's squad for the major tournament.
