Trevor Bayliss says England can achieve "something special" following the Test series win over South Africa.
The seven-wicket success in Johannesburg ensured England will take a 2-0 lead into the final Test on Friday, providing Bayliss with a second memorable series win just six months into his tenure following the Ashes victory last summer.
England will remain No 5 in the Test rankings whatever happens at Centurion, but with Alastair Cook, James Anderson and Stuart Broad in their prime - Broad was confirmed as the world's best Test bowler on Sunday - and a clutch of improving young talent to back them up, Bayliss believes the potential is there to climb to the very top.
"It's hard to look into the future but you look at some of those players... the potential is there," he said.
"But potential never won anything. You have got to go out and do the hard work and not take everything for granted.
"You have got to go out and keep having that attitude on the field, keep striving to get better.
"We prepare to go out and play good cricket. If we play good cricket, we'll be in with a chance of winning. If we win a few Test matches, there'll be a chance of going up the rankings and becoming the best team in the world.
"The future of this team could turn into something special."
