[WATCH] Temba Bavuma & Quinton de Kock involved in heated exchange during South Africa’s win over Australia

South Africa captain Temba Bavuma and wicketkeeper Quinton de Kock were involved in a brief heated exchange during their team's second ODI against Australia at Wanderers Stadium on September 27, 2026. The disagreement occurred in the 48th over of Australia's chase over whether to take an LBW review against Xavier Bartlett off Lizaad Williams' bowling. Bavuma overruled De Kock's hesitation and successfully reviewed the call, resulting in Bartlett being dismissed.

South Africa posted 365 for 9 behind a century from Bavuma (103) and a career-best 142 from David Miller. Australia were bowled out for 333 in response despite half-centuries from Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head, securing the victory for South Africa.
