When did this incident happen during the match?

This incident pertains to the 13th over of South Africa's innings on the first day of the Kolkata Test. Bumrah surprised Bavuma on the last ball of this over. The ball hit the upper side of Bavuma's pad. There was a strong appeal for LBW, which was rejected by the umpire. When the Indian players were discussing among themselves about challenging the umpire's decision i.e. taking DRS, Bumrah made the mistake of calling Bavuma a dwarf.

Rishabh Pant said that the ball has height. In his reply, Bumrah said that he is also a dwarf. Then Pant said that he is fine, but the ball has hit the pad also. Ultimately the idea of ​​taking DRS was postponed. Later, when ball tracking was also seen, it was found that the ball was going over the leg stump.
