Scotland produced a ferocious response to their Six Nations loss in Italy They tore England apart in a bonus-point victory in a breathless Calcutta Cup encounter. Author | Sophie T Stadium | Murrayfield Conducted superbly by Finn Russell and driven by a sharp-edged ruthlessness, the hosts overwhelmed an England side that never recovered from a chaotic opening. The Scots looked transformed.

Luke Littler 7 - 1 Gian van Veen Luke Littler delivered a performance of authority to overwhelm Gian van Veen and retain the PDC World Championship title at Alexandra Palace.
