Overview
- Broadcast audio captured Jasprit Bumrah referring to Temba Bavuma’s height during a DRS discussion early on Day 1 at Eden Gardens.
- India chose not to review the on-field not-out call, and subsequent ball-tracking indicated the delivery would have missed the stumps.
- Reports note Ravindra Jadeja and Rishabh Pant laughed at the remark, with clips widely shared by sports outlets and on social media.
- Coverage differs on whether the moment came at the end of the 12th over or in the 13th, though all agree it occurred soon after Bumrah dismissed Aiden Markram.
- Bumrah struck early by removing Ryan Rickelton and Markram, and Bavuma was later caught at short leg off Kuldeep Yadav, as South Africa batted first after winning the toss.
