Without mentioning the series in which the incident took place, speculated to be South Africa's tour of India in 2015, Elgar agreed on a podcast that he had showdowns with Kohli and Ashwin.
Zubayr Hamza has been added to the squad as cover.
Elgar made an unbeaten 140 and Bedingham an assured 56 as South Africa reached 256 for five, a lead of 11 runs.
Elgar captained South Africa in 17 Tests before losing the armband to Temba Bavuma in January this year. He won nine and lost six of his matches in charge, most notably beating India 2-1 in a home series in 2022.
A common thread that runs along the career of these cricketers is that they not only made light of the initial setback, but rose to the pole position of leading their respective countries in international cricket.
South Africa bucked the trend at the Hagley Oval and elected to bat first, and thanks to a century from Sarel Erwee in the first innings they managed to post 364 and take a 71-run first-innings lead, which proved crucial in the end.
Chasing 212 in tough conditions at Newlands, South Africa were 60/1 in the 21st over when Elgar got the reprieve, but with the Indian camp busy with the DRS controversy the hosts went on to score 40 runs in the next eight overs.
The brittle Indian batting line-up meant the visitors failed to conquer South Africa for the eighth successive tour spread over a little over 29 years.
The Indian players were upset by the DRS decision that ruled in favour of South African skipper Dean Elgar.
Rabada scalped six wickets, three in each innings, to play a pivotal role in South Africa's series-levelling seven-wicket win in the second Test.
