GEORGE Skivington is two for two as captain after leading England Saxons to victory in Italy yesterday.

The Wasps lock wore the armband as England won 31-5 in Treviso thanks to tries from Miles Benjamin, Alex Goode, David Strettle and a penalty try.

Rob Webber and Danny Cipriani, at full back, also played for the Saxons.

The victory follows a narrow win over Ireland A at Bath's Recreation Ground last week.
