09/06/2019

After a sudden loss of two big wickets, Joe Root and Rory Burns dragged it nicely to bring up a decent score on board. But when they were all set to take the team to a good total, Burns was dismissed and soon, Root walked back to the pavilion. Twitterati reacted on sudden English collapse.

Unlucky Root and Rory!!

Basically needed both Root and Burns to convert and neither have

Man for the future!!

Back to only following text updates but Rory Burns’ knock sounded a solid one... at least half our opening partnership problem seems to be sorted #TheAshes

Once he gets going, he gives his best!

That was a high class innings by Rory Burns .. Liking the way he goes away and works on areas of concerns & improves .. Made of some strong stuff .. #Ashes

Take a bow, Burns!

Well played Rory Burns. Excellent stuff. We've found Sir Alastair Cook's replacement.

Hazlewood turned it around for Australia!!!

That was a brilliant partnership. Well played Rory Burns. Felt 1 ball before that HAZELWOOD will get a wicket soon but he didn't give me time to tweet it.#Ashes
