Most eyes were on whether the Australian selectors would go for the out-of-form opening batsman David Warner or the young opening batsman Jake Fraser-McGurk. Warner has failed to score runs for quite some time. Even in IPL 2024, his bat is silent. At the same time, 22-year-old McGurk, who is playing for Delhi Capitals with him in the IPL, has earned a name. McGurk has so far scored 259 runs in the IPL at a strike rate of 233, including 23 fours and 23 sixes. In the end, the selection committee decided to go with the experience of Warner, who proved to be the Player of the Tournament of the 2021 World Cup.
