Former Proteas all-rounder and current T20I Specialist Consultant to the national team, Albie Morkel, believes their bowlers need to go back to the drawing board after a heavy defeat to India in their T20 World Cup warm-up match in Navi Mumbai on Wednesday night.

With the tournament getting under way tomorrow, and the Proteas opening their campaign against Canada on Monday, they don't have much time to change things up, but their experiences in India over the past few months should help them get to grips with the conditions.
