We had never won a series in South Africa and this was a big opportunity for all of us. There were some senior players who were not available.’ India lost 2-1 against South Africa Rahul Dravid further said, ‘Rohit Sharma was injured and some senior players were not in that series. We were very close in both the Tests. We had a great opportunity in the third innings of both these Tests because we had scored a very good score and could have won the match. However, South Africa played very well. They chased the target in the fourth innings and we lost the match. This was the lowest point of my career. I felt bad that we were ahead in this series but still could not win it.’ South Africa won the three-match Test series 2-1.

Made KKR the champion in IPL but failed in the ODI series Gautam made the KKR team the champion of IPL 2024, which helped him retain the post of coach. Gautam claimed during the IPL that he has excellent coaching skills. Apart from this, the Lucknow Super Giants team he coached was in the top four in the IPL playoffs both the times. But Gambhir’s training failed in the ODI format and India lost its last match in a very embarrassing manner.
