They can and will put up a fight against cruisers. Frigates, on the other hand, don't have either enough range or survivability to justify deploying them in any other scenario than pursuit.
Cruisers are in my opinion their direct counter and frigates are often fast enough and nimble enough with the games current AI to outrun most destroyers before they can be pinned down and killed.
