MS Dhoni was still India's captain across all three formats at the time and had the task of leading a young side to success in the rainbow nation.
India came close in the first Test at Johannesburg and then lost the second Test at Durban, owing to a poor batting performance in the second innings to lose the series 1-0.
Who knew then that it was to be the last time, fans would get to see Dhoni in action in the whites for India on South African territory.
