On​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ Friday, South Africa batting coach Ashwell Prince extravagant in his dismissal of the stump-cam chatter between Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah and wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant, said the visiting team would not have “any discussion” about the incident. The conversation was recorded at the last ball of the 13th over of the South African innings, when, at 62/2, a leg-before wicket appeal from Bumrah against Proteas captain Temba Bavuma was turned down. While India was debating whether to take the DRS, stump-cameras caught Bumrah saying "bauna bhi hai", a line that several viewers took as a sarcastic comment to Bavuma's height. However, Prince, after the match, moved away from any kind of scandal, South Africa team to the question about ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌it. Ashwell Prince distances team from height-jibe controversy “No, there will be no discussion. It’s the first time, obviously, it’s come to my attention. I don’t think there’ll be any issues with what’s happened out in the middle,” Prince said. Bavuma, returning to captain the Test side after recovering from a calf strain, endured a brief outing, dismissed for 3 off 11 balls by Kuldeep Yadav’s leg-slip trap. The injury had earlier sidelined him during the start of South Africa’s World Test Championship title defence against Pakistan. The incident occurred when Bumrah angled a good-length ball into Bavuma, striking him on the thigh pad. The pacer went up in a loud appeal, but the umpire remained unmoved. Pant felt the delivery was going over, and replays later confirmed it would have missed the stumps. Although “bauna”—a Hindi term associated with dwarfism—can be deemed offensive when used for someone who is simply short, South Africa have made it clear they are not filing any complaint.
