Nathan Lyon captured a long-awaited 400th Test victim and spun Australia to an emphatic nine-wicket victory in the first Ashes Test in Brisbane on Saturday, with England losing eight wickets in a stunning morning collapse at the Gabba on day four.

Pat Cummins’ team head to the day-night second Test in Adelaide with huge momentum and a 1-0 lead in the five-match series after dominating England with bat, ball and in the field.

The tourists, meanwhile, will be left to pore over their failings in Brisbane, with question marks hanging over their selections and tactics, and with few ready solutions for the batting woes ruthlessly exposed by Australia
