Elgar, who had announced retirement from international cricket before the start of the series, got a rousing reception from fans. Elgar acknowledged the gesture of the fans as he waved to the crowd.
The 36-year-old, who scored a match-winning 186 in Centurion Test, failed to make the same impact in Cape Town as got out for 4 and 12 in two innings of the Test match.
