Openers David Warner and Cameron Bancroft breezed to an unbroken century partnership on Sunday, leaving Australia needing just 56 runs to go one up in the Ashes series after England imploded.

The tourists were skittled out for 195 off 71.4 overs, losing their last six wickets for 82, as the Test swung Australia’s way on the fourth day at the Gabba.

The Australians, unbeaten at their Gabba fortress since 1988, were chasing down 170 runs to win and made easy work of the 34 overs to the close.

At stumps, they were 114 without loss with Warner unbeaten on 60 and Bancroft not out 51.
