Chennai Super Kings (CSK) pacer Simarjit Singh struck twice to send back the Rajasthan Royals (RR) Yashasvi Jaiswal and Jos Buttler in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 match at Chepauk on Sunday. The speedster first dismissed Jaiswal in the seventh over, thanks to a sky-high catch from captain Ruturaj Gaikwad. He then sent back Buttler as Tushar Deshpande took a diving catch.

Jaiswal dismissal came in the seventh over of RR's innings. Simrajit Singh bowled a short delivery and Jaiswal sent for the pull shot but only managed top edge towards cover. Gaikwad charged in to complete a safe catch.

Buttler's wicket came in the ninth over. Simarjit bowled a full-length ball and Buttler went for a scoop shot but only miscued it towards fine leg as Deshpande completed a good running catch.
