Ashes 2017: Australia wins first Test against England

Australia won the first Ashes Test by ten wickets and a thumping margin taking a 1-0 series lead against England.

Australia's Cameron Bancroft sweeps England's Chris Woakes fine for four, then smashes a full toss straight for another and off the last ball of the over, hit another drive and secures a big win for Australia.

The Australian team seized complete control of the first Ashes Test on Day 4 as David Warner and Cameron Bancroft crossed a 100 run partnership.

Australian vice-captain David Warner finished off with 87 runs and Bancroft secured 82 runs.

The second Ashes Test will start from 2 December.
