England lost two wickets just before tea as India regained the advantage in the second test match in Mumbai.
England lose two wickets before tea

Pragyan Ojha took two wickets just before tea to reduce England to 77-2 on day two of the second Test in Mumbai.

In reply to India's 327, Alastair Cook and Nick Compton had started England's innings in solid fashion, mixing defence and attack perfectly to subdue India.

However, India's spin attackers were beginning to build some pressure and it paid off when Compton edged a Ojha delivery to Virender Sehwag at slip for 29 to end an opening stand of 66.

Jonathan Trott came to the middle looking to see England through to tea without any further damage, but Ojha struck again to dismiss the Warwickshire batsman for a duck.

That brought Kevin Pietersen to the crease and he got off the mark with a typically aggressive four as England reached tea on 77-2, with Cook unbeaten on 43.
