No discussion at all: SA not complaining about 'bauna' remark at Temba Bavuma
South Africa batting coach Ashwell Prince downplayed stump-mic chatter involving Jasprit Bumrah and Rishabh Pant, stating the team will not discuss the incident. The exchange occurred during a leg-before appeal against Temba Bavuma, with Bumrah's comment interpreted as a taunt. Prince confirmed no issues are expected from the on-field conversation.
Kolkata: South Africa batting coach Ashwell Prince on Friday played down the stump-mic chatter involving Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah and wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant, saying the visitors will have "no discussion" around the incident during the opening day's play in the first Test at the Eden Gardens.

During the conversation about whether to take the DRS, the stump mic picked up Bumrah saying, "bauna bhi hai," a remark many interpreted as a taunt at Bavuma's height.
Prince, however, distanced the team from any such controversy during the interaction after the opening day's proceedings.
"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 lead the Test side after recovering from a calf strain, had a brief and forgettable outing as he was dismissed for 3 off 11 balls by Kuldeep Yadav via a leg-slip trap.
The injury had earlier forced him to miss the start of South Africa's World Test Championship title defence against Pakistan.
The incident unfolded when Bumrah angled a good-length delivery back into Bavuma, struck him on the thigh pad and the pacer, who returned with five wickets, went with a huge appeal only for the umpire to reject it.
Pant felt it was going over and the replays later confirmed the ball would have missed the stumps.
The Hindi word "bauna" is commonly used for those suffering from dwarfism, but its usage for someone who is simply short in height can be viewed as offensive.
South Africa, however, are not lodging any complaint.
