Legends and Pundits react as Rory Burns scores maiden ton in Ashes debut
Steve Smith's ton helped Australia to stay alive in the game but England had a perfect reply on cards for their oldest rivals on the second day. Opener Rory Burns batted out the entire day and scored his maiden ton on his Ashes debut. The entire cricket fraternity wished Burns for this achievement.
What a moment for Burns!
Maiden Test 💯 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 @roryburns17 🏏

Fantastic display of Test cricket!
England played very high quality limited overs cricket to win a World Cup. Now they are playing quality test cricket to inch ahead in the Ashes. Need another 150-175 though since they have to bat last on a track that is keeping a bit low occasionally.

Missing Starc??
Aussies missing Starc? Badly I think. May not have been in top form but brought a psychological edge to the attack which is missing now
