The Proteas collapsed like a deflated balloon against England in the second Test at Kingsmead in Durban today to lose by an innings and 98 runs.

Local fans were stunned as spinner Graeme Swann produced yet another magnificent bowling effort to take five for 54.

He was ably assisted by Stuart Broad who weighed in with four for 43.

South Africa scored 343 and 133 on a pitch that appeared to frighten the life out of the local batsmen.

England, on the other hand, made merry on the flat surface and scored 574 for nine declared for one of their best performances in many years.
