England tail crumbles after Alastair Cook, Kevin Pietersen centuries

England tail crumbles

England's tail couldn't significantly add to the century work of Alastair Cook and Kevin Pietersen as England were bowled out for 413 at tea on the third day of the second Test against India in Mumbai.

The total leaves the tourists with a lead of 86 after the first innings, with India still to bat a session on the third day.

Cook (122) and Pietersen (186) also both equalled the most number of Test centuries by an Englishman at 22.

Pragyan Ojha was the pick of India's bowlers, taking five for 143 that included a late clatter of four wickets for seven runs in 13 balls.
