Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah is known for his calm nature, but one of his actions created a ruckus on the first day of the India vs South Africa first test match. What he said to South African captain Temba Bavuma has become a topic of discussion. Actually, Bumrah was talking to Rishabh Pant during the match. During this conversation, he used the word ‘dwarf’ for Temba Bavuma. Its video is going viral on social media.
Jasprit Bumrah had dismissed both South African openers, Aiden Markram and Ryan Rickleton. Shortly after the fall of Markram’s wicket, Bumrah appealed for LBW against Temba Bavuma, but the ground umpire ruled in favor of Bavuma. The Indian team had a chance to take DRS, meanwhile Bumrah took advice from wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant.
He is a dwarf…
The conversation between Jasprit Bumrah and Rishabh Pant is going viral. First Bumrah said, “He is a dwarf.” Rishabh Pant replied, “He is a dwarf but here.” After this, Bumrah once again used the word “dwarf” for Bavuma. Bumrah wanted DRS to be taken, but Rishabh Pant believed that despite Bavuma’s short height, the ball would miss the leg stump. When the replays were shown, the ball had indeed gone over the stumps.
