This has helped us get familiar with the conditions and it is no longer foreign to us,&rdquo; Duminy, who plays for Delhi Daredevils, said at press conference here ahead of their World Twenty20 warm-up match against India at the Wankhede Stadium on Saturday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The 27-day tournament got underway in Nagpur on March 8 and will be played at eight venues across India with Eden Gardens in Kolkata scheduled to host the final on April 3.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>India, Pakistan, New Zealand and Australia are clubbed in Group 2 while South Africa, England, the West Indies and Sri Lanka are in Group 1.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>South Africa come into the tournament after a 1-2 loss against Australia in the T20 International series.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&ldquo;We, as a team, take lot of positives from the series against Australia. The series was a needed one just before World T20. We are confident that with the balanced side we have and the batting line-up we have we can go a long way,&rdquo; the left-handed batsman said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>When asked if the Proteas are still carrying the tag of chokers into the tournament, the 31-year-old made it clear that unless and until they win a major tournament, they will have to carry the tag.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&ldquo;We are never going to lose the chokers tag unless and until we win a big tournament. We have let ourselves down in pressure situation in big and crucial games. Pressure and expectation always going to be there but this is a big chance for us with a good team to win the World title,&rdquo; Duminy said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Agency<\/strong><\/p>\r\n",
