He ended the season with 330 runs in 9 innings with a strike rate of 234, and smashing 32 fours and 28 sixes.[8] There was some speculation on if he would be picked for the 2024 T20 World Cup but he didn't make the squad.[9] However, he was added as a travelling reserve along with Matthew Short.[10]
In May 2024, he was named as a reserve player in Australia’s squad for the 2024 ICC Men's T20 World Cup tournament.[11] On 15 July 2024, Fraser-McGurk was included in the Australia squad for a white-ball tour of England and Scotland to be held in September that year.[12] [13]
