Fraser-McGurk continued his carnage against the MI bowlers and reached his fifty in 15 balls, equalling his own record this season. The Aussie batter would then hit Hardik Pandya for 20 runs in his first over and it looked like he was set for a hundred.

However, Piyush Chawla would ultimately get him out, but the damage was already done. Fraser-McGurk would get a standing ovation from the Delhi crowd as he had hit 11 boundaries and 6 sixes.
