India suffered a 30-run defeat in the first Test of the two-match series. After the match ended, Jasprit Bumrah walked over to the Proteas captain and shared a warm hug amid the controversy that had erupted earlier in the game. On Day 1, a stump-mic remark involving Bumrah and Rishabh Pant had gone viral.
While deciding whether to take a DRS review, Bumrah used the word “bauna,” a Hindi term commonly associated with dwarfism and often viewed as offensive when used casually to describe a short person. Many viewers felt the remark was a comment on Bavuma’s height.

Following South Africa’s victory over Team India, Shukri Conrad responded to the stump-mic controversy with a light remark, saying Temba Bavuma has “the heart of a giant.”
Bavuma played a crucial role in turning the match South Africa’s way. He struck a half-century on Day 3 and added a 44-run partnership with Corbin Bosch. His unbeaten 55 was not only the only fifty of the entire Test, but also his first on Indian soil.

Temba Bavuma lauded South Africa’s lower order for shifting the momentum in their favour. Bavuma said that the partnerships he shared with Corbin Bosch and Marco Jansen played a key role.
“Fortunately things have worked out quite well. Our bowlers got us back into the game, but that partnership with Bosch and I think a little bit with Marco as well, at the end of the day, just gave a little bit of impetus that we could play a little bit better this morning. It wasn't as extreme, but we were able to get a partnership,” he added.
