Proteas progressing

England have entered the history books. They have become the first team ever to name and unchanged side for the sixth consecutive time. England will take on South Africa at Lords tomorrow for the first of four tests.

The Proteas have performed well while on tour in England but have never won a test series. Former South African cricketer Pat Symcox believes the Proteas can win. He says they hold the edge as they are good, strong and balanced.

South Africa have been rewarded for their good form. They have moved up to second in the ICC test ranking with England dropping to fourth. Symcox says that the fact that SA are second will not faze them. They will be focusing on the game at hand to make they do the best job possible.
