Scotland vs Australia 1st T20I: Australia's young opening batsman Jake Fraser-McGurk made a big unwanted record in the first T20 International played against Scotland at Grange Cricket Club in Edinburgh on Wednesday (September 4). This was Fraser-McGurk's debut match in T20 International.

Fraser-McGurk, who came to open the innings with Travis Head, was out on 0 on the third ball of the innings without opening his account. In an attempt to play a big shot on the ball of Brandon McMullen, he got caught by Charlie Castle.

Fraser-McGurk became the first Australian top-order batsman to start his T20I career with a 0-ball. No other Australian top-six batsman has ever been dismissed for a 0-ball on debut. The other two Australian T20I debutants to be dismissed for a 0-ball on debut are Ashley Noffke (2007) and Jhye Richardson (2017).

Let us tell you that Fraser-McGurk was selected as a reserve player in the Australia team for the T20 World Cup 2024. But now after David Warner's retirement from international cricket, he has become Head's new opening partner.

It is worth noting that in this match Australia defeated Scotland by 7 wickets. After being invited to bat first, host Scotland scored 154 runs for the loss of 9 wickets. In bowling for Australia, Sean Abbott took three wickets, Adam Zampa and Xavier Bartlett took two wickets each, Riley Meredith and Cameron Green took one wicket each.
