Meanwhile, Rajasthan have endured a rollercoaster of a season. In 6 matches, they lost their first 2 matches against Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders, bounced back well to rack up wins against Chennai and Punjab, and now have suffered back-to-back defeats at the hands of Gujarat and Bengaluru. With the season nearing the conclusion of the 1st half, they would be hoping to go on a winning run to make the playoffs.

 

Coming to the team dynamics, Delhi might drop Jake Fraser MacGurk and go with Karun Nair instead if Faf du Plessis return as an opener. Nair stepped up for Delhi with a stunning 89 off 40 balls against Mumbai, displaying fearless intent, including 18 runs in the final powerplay over off Jasprit Bumrah with 2 sixes. He was used as an impact player opener and delivered at a strike rate of 222, proving his worth in the top order. This performance came at a crucial time as Jake Fraser-McGurk's struggles continued with a first-ball duck in the same match. McGurk's overall scores in IPL 2025 have been underwhelming, with only one notable knock of 38 and multiple single-digit scores. 

 

Delhi even played with only three overseas player’s last match, keeping Ferreira in the impact list and opting for Nair instead. Once Faf du Plessis returns from his injury, McGurk is likely to be excluded. Delhi seems to be leaning on their in-form Indian batters, and Karun Nair’s innings solidified that approach. 

 

Jake Fraser McGurk scores in IPL 2025: 0 (1) vs MI (2025), 7 (6) vs RCB (2025), 0 (5) vs CSK (2025), 38(32) vs SRH (2025), 1(2) vs LSG (2025)
