England were brushed aside by Scotland as their Six Nations title hopes were dealt a major blow in round two. It was another Murrayfield meltdown from Steve Borthwick’s side, who saw a 12-match Test winning run snapped emphatically as they went down 31-20 in front of a raucous crowd in Edinburgh and relinquished the Calcutta Cup. It was their first defeat in a year, since they lost to Ireland on the opening weekend of last year’s competition in Dublin.
