An unbeaten England face Scotland at Twickenham tomorrow.
England have refused to discuss their winning run, but stringing together 17 Test wins is a magnificent achievement. And victory over Scotland would see them equal the record set by New Zealand last year, while the same outcome against Ireland a week later would nudge them past the All Blacks and into the history books.
However, if Eddie Jones’s boys lose tomorrow they will swap places with Ireland who are currently three points below England.
