Former England batsman Geoffrey Boycott has insisted that Australia have a lot of issues to sort out after their first Test defeat.
England took a 1-0 lead in The Ashes thanks to a convincing 169-run win, and Boycott claims that they have been hit hard by the unexpected retirement of Ryan Harris and Mitchell Starc's fitness problems.
He told BBC Sport: "Australia had a big problem with Harris, now it is Starc's ankle. Lord's usually has a bit in it for the fast bowlers and the slope helps you. Starc has to be a doubt.
"[Shane] Watson keeps getting out lbw and [Brad] Haddin as well at 37, has he lost it? I question whether he's up to it. On top of that they want to have a big talk about their tactics and their batsmen getting out for 30."
The second Test starts on Thursday.
