Springbok assistant coach Felix Jones said he is not surprised England's rugby team have improved so much over the past few years, and expects their Test against South Africa in June to be fierce.

England's 12-match winning streak, hailed by home fans as proof they were the best team in the world, has now been halted by losses to Ireland and Scotland though South African supporters were never entirely convinced.

Most recall the Springboks winning their last three matches against England, and securing sizeable wins in recent years.
