Mumbai Test: India all out for 327 in first innings

Host India all out for 327 in the first innings. Team India, who resumed their first innings play at the overnight score of 266 for 6, lost their first wicket of the day in the form of overnight batsman Ravichandran Ashwin. Ashwin made a valuable 68. Harbhajan Singh and Pujara then tried to steady the Indian ship, but Graeme Swann's brilliant use of the spinning track proved a little too much for Harbhajan, as he went back to the hut for 21. Harbhajan's wicket eventually led to the fall of in-form batsman Cheteshwar Pujara, who had scored his third test century yesterday. Pujara scored a masterly 135 before he was stumped off Swann. Swann claimed Zaheer Khan's wicket as well and finished with a haul of 4 for 70. Left Arm Spinner Monty Panesar was the pick of the bowlers with 5 wickets. Hosts India are leading the 4-match series, 1-0. They had defeated England by 9 wickets in the first test at Ahmedabad.
