During the 38th match of the 11th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) between Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) at Indore, Kings XI Punjab’s Mujeeb Ur Rahman picked up two wickets in one over to further weaken the Royals’ innings.

Ravichandran Ashwin, captain of Kings XI Punjab, won the toss and chose to field. Kings XI once again dropped Yuvraj Singh in place of Manoj Tiwary. On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals included Anureet Singh in place of Dhawal Kulkarni.

Archer was bowled by Rahman on the first ball that he faced.

Rahman, who was introduced into the attack as the first change bowler in the third over of the innings, affected the dual jolt in his final over, the 15th of the innings.

On the first delivery, Rahman’s carrom ball induced the outside edge of Jos Buttler’s bat, which was caught behind the wickets by Lokesh Rahul. Buttler ended up scoring 51 (39) with the help of seven fours. Watch the video of his dismissal:

Rahman followed it up with a googly to Jofra Archer who seemed to have no clue about what the ball was about to do. The gap between his bat and pad saw the ball going between it and hitting his stumps. Watch the video:
