But despite coming up against their biggest challenge since the drawn Irish series, Davids explained that the team management was happy withConfidence in all players “So it is important to make selections that put us in a position to get the best reward. We look at the players’ current form, the opposition that we are playing against, and other variables that we will take into account when we select our team for this weekend.
“They are mostly close games when we play against them if one looks back, and they always present a good match-up in all departments, so this week will be no different.”
