He's Thinking 

Temba Bavuma must be thinking about his Player of the Match speech. He has already given his best with the bat, now time with the mic. 

Trust Issues

When the ball was flying high in the air, Bavuma had started looking at the crowd. It seems that he has some trust issues that his players would drop the catch. 

Travis Head

One of the biggest reasons he would be looking away from the wicket is Travis Head. He gave a taunt to Bavuma after the first Test, and he won the POTM in the second.
