England's overnight hopes of dominating Australia in the opening Ashes Test here were dashed with the hosts coming up with a superb bowling display to thrash the tourists by nine wickets at The Gabba and take a 1-0 lead in the series on Saturday.

England top-order batters Dawid Malan and Joe Root's spirited fightback had helped England close day three on a high as the tourists had reached 220 for two at stumps, trailing by 58 runs.
