Reaction surfaced

Jasprit Bumrah had body-shamed the South African captain by calling him a dwarf. After this there was a lot of uproar on social media. Now the reaction of South Africa’s batting coach Ashwell Prince on this matter has come to light. After the first day he said, “No. There will be no discussion. This is the first time it has come to my attention. I don’t think there will be any problem with what has happened.

He further said that Siraj could not keep pace properly in his first spell. However, when he changed sides in the second spell, he made a comeback and it was quite good. He caught his rhythm and line. But Bumrah was scoring runs continuously and the spinners were also very good. So I think there were some good balls and sometimes the batsmen also perform well. You can’t do much about them. We have to work hard. There is still a long way to go in the game. And hopefully we will perform better in the second innings.

It is a matter of 13th over

This incident happened during the 13th over, when Bumrah bowled to Temba Bavuma and then appealed for LBW. During this, Pant and Jasprit Bumrah argue about taking DRS. Then Bumrah calls Bavuma a dwarf. Then the video of this entire matter goes viral on social media.
