DURBAN (Reuters) - South Africa will need to go back to basics if they want to rediscover their form against England in the four-test series, which starts on Boxing Day, coach Russell Domingo said.

“I’ve always thought that when sides are under pressure and possibly not playing well you need to do the basics well,” Domingo said on Tuesday as the squad assembled for the first time since returning from last month’s 3-0 series defeat in India.
