"For me, in the series coming up (against India), it's going to be that last session in the day when the ball is soft and conditions are tough. In Cape Town the wind is going to blow, we know that, so for us the best preparation today as a bowling unit was to enforce the follow-on and get the 10 wickets," the right-arm pacer said after South Africa beat Zimbabwe by an innings in Port Elizabeth. 

The 33-year-old also said team-mate and premier pacer Dale Steyn has been bowling well during the practice session.
