England reach lunch on 7-0 after they bowl India all out for 327 during the morning session of day two of the second Test match in Mumbai.

England have dismissed India for 327 just before lunch on day two of the second Test match in Mumbai.

India could add only 61 runs to their overnight total as Monty Panesar and Graeme Swann took the remaining wickets, while England negotiated the first four overs of their innings to reach 7-0.

The hosts had added just 14 more runs when Panesar bowled a quicker delivery at Ravichandran Ashwin to trap him lbw for 68, which gave the left-arm spinner his fifth wicket.

That brought Harbhajan Singh to the crease to add 21 runs off 35 balls before he was hit in front of his stumps by Swann.

England finally captured the wicket that they had craved when Cheteshwar Pujara failed to connect after stepping down the pitch to a Swann delivery to allow Matt Prior to dislodge the bails to stump the 24-year-old for 135.

After the departure of Pujara, Zaheer Khan launched a counter-offensive with 11 runs off as many balls but the innings was brought to an end when he was adjudged to have hit the ball to Nick Compton, despite relays proving otherwise.

England were forced to begin their first innings with just 15 minutes left before lunch, but Alastair Cook and Compton safely made it through to the interval.
