Onions confident of England win over South Africa

England fast bowler Graham Onions said his team had a chance of winning the first Test against South Africa after putting in a determined effort on Day Two at SuperSport Park yesterday.

Onions said England had "stuck in nicely as a bowling unit" to bowl out South Africa for 418 on a second successive hot day, then made a good start as they reached 88 for one at the close. Andrew Strauss and Jonathan Trott had put on 63 runs for the second wicket.

"We put the ball in some good areas on a pretty good wicket," said Onions, who took three for 86.

"There's no reason why we can't press for a result. We'll have to bat well."
