By Saurabh Sharma August 03, 2019 • 10:25 AM View: 1198

Birmingham, Aug 3: As Australia had an answer with Steven Smith, England opener Rory Burns (125 off 282) gave a befitting reply to push his side 267/4 against the visitors as they took on a 17-run lead at the Edgbaston cricket ground here on Friday.

It was a solid show from the English batsmen on an overcast second day of the first Ashes Test between England and Australia at the Edgbaston Cricket Ground on Friday. Starting the day on 10/0, the Englishmen went into lunch with the score on 71/1 with skipper Joe Root (11) and Rory Burns (41) at the crease.
