Starc blows away England tail for win: 2nd Test, Day 5 (Adelaide)

Mitch Starc took 5-88 as England's fightback was only a mirage as Australia powered to a 120-run win and a 2-0 Ashes lead.

England unraveled early as Chris Woakes and Joe Root for 67 both fell to Josh Hazlewood in quick succession.

Jonny Bairstow hit 36, but Starc used the second new ball to polish off the England tail.

Australia 8 for 442 dec (Marsh 126*, Paine 57, Khawaja 53, Overton 3-105) and 138 (Anderson 5-43) beat England 227 (Overton 41*, Lyon 4-60, Starc 3-49) and 233 (Root 67, Starc 5-88) by 120 runs.
