Australia level the Ashes 2015 with a thumping 405-run win at the Lord’s on Sunday. The visitors were on the back-foot after the Cardiff loss but outplayed England in all departments to seal the second Test inside four days.
Chasing 509 for win, England were bundled out for a paltry 103 runs in just 37 overs. Here’s what they said on Twitter about Australia’s win:
