Flare up the mood! Temba Bavuma, Quinton de Kock involved in heated exchange during review – Watch

Quinton de Kock and Temba Bavuma Temba Bavuma and Quinton de Kock were involved in a heated exchange during South Africa’s second ODI against Australia at the Wanderers after a check call sparked disagreements between the two Proteas players.The incident took place in the fourth delivery of the 48th over. Lizaad Williams trapped Xavier Bartlett on the pads and South Africa immediately appealed for LBW but the on-field umpire dismissed the appeal.A lengthy discussion took place in the middle as South Africa had to decide whether to review the decision. Bavuma eventually decided to accept the review and it turned out to be the right call as the records showed three reds.Bartlett, who scored a quickfire 50 off 28 balls, was given out.However, the review footage also captured an animated exchange between Bavuma and de Kock. Both seemed to be pointing fingers at each other, with the conversation not looking friendly.Marco Jansen intervened and appeared to calm de Kock down before the goalscorer left the scene.The dismissal came from a yorker from Williams, who bowled the ball to mid-on and leg. Bartlett tried to back away and slashed at him but missed, the ball hitting him in front of his leg. Ball-tracking subsequently confirmed that it would hit the stumps.That moment came in another impressive performance by South Africa, who beat Australia by 32 runs to seal the three-match ODI series.David Miller smashed 142 off 93 balls while Bavuma scored 103 as South Africa posted 365-9. Australia were bowled out for 333 despite Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head scoring 84.“Another good all-round team performance,” Bavuma said. “Unbelievable innings by David and then the pitchers as well … there was a lot more rotation than expected. The way the rotation complemented our offense was great.”The two teams will meet in the ODI final on Wednesday, with Australia looking for a consolation.
