Jasprit Bumrah and Marco Janssen got into a heated argument on the third day of the second test match between India and South Africa in Johannesburg. The two cricketers exchanged words before accusing each other, which required the intervention of the umpire, who defused the situation.
The incident happened during the 54th over of the innings when the Indian tail disappointed the South African pacers. India were 230/8 and Hanuma Vihari was batting with the tail, hoping to lead.

Jensen showered short deliveries on Bumrah, who did not duck and instead went for his shots while staring and exchanging words with the 21-year-old left-arm pacer.
After countering one on his right hand, Bumrah flicks his shoulder to a clear Johnson stare. Another bouncer followed which hit the Indian on the helmet.
Jansen started, spoke a few words and Bumrah replied. However, the India batsman signaled South Africa to come forward and then there was a mid-pitch confrontation between the two. Fortunately, the fire was brought under control before it got out of control.
India were eventually bowled out for 266 in 60.1 overs, setting South Africa a target of 240 to win and level the three-match series. The tourists made quick runs in their second dig with half-centuries from Ajinkya Rahane and Cheteshwar Pujara.
Hanuma Vihari also played a solid innings as he batted with a tail and remained unbeaten on 40 and took the lead. India were bowled out for 202 after deciding to bat first at The Wanderers and in reply, South Africa scored 229 runs and took a slim 27-run lead.
