Albie Morkel on playing in 37-degree Celsius heat

"Maybe they must reconsider 4 pm games in Chennai. My word someone will die soon"
The IPL games are played during peak Indian summer when the temperatures soar as high as 45-degree Celsius. Especially, the afternoon games that commence by 4 pm are played in the gruelling summer heat. Most of the overseas players find it difficult to adapt to the humid Indian conditions and easily get dehydrated.
The Proteas all-rounder Albie Morkel had his say on playing the evening games at Chepauk. He urged the IPL governing council to reconsider the match timings and if they're not, someone might even die playing in the hot and humid conditions.
