Monty Panesar picked up one more -- that of Ravichandran Ashwin's -- on Saturday morning to return with a five-wicket haul from the first innings at Wankhede. (BCCI Photo)

England finally managed to get Cheteshwar Pujara out for the first time in the series as the centurion was foxed by a Graeme Swann delivery. (BCCI Photo)

Harbhajan Singh returned to Test cricket after over an year. And he decided to give Panesar some beating as he scored a brisk 21 with two boundaries and a six. (BCCI Photo)

Graeme Swann may have played second fiddle to Panesar on Day 1, but he returned four wickets from the innings after up two more on Saturday. (BCCI Photo)

Nick Compton got England off to a patient, but steady, start. He rallied around skipper Alastair Cook for a 90-ball 29, but was ultimately done in by a beaty from Pragyan Ojha. (BCCI Photo)

Jonathan Trott's poor show continued as he was caught on the wrong foot in front of the wicket by Ojha on a duck. (BCCI Photo)

The wicket was supposed to be helpful for the spinners. And though Ashwin and Harbhajan kept the batsmen guessing, it was only Ojha who managed the two English wickets of the day. (BCCI Photo)

Kevin Pietersen got back to his scoring ways with a 85-ball 62, that had nine hits to the fence. He remained not out. (BCCI Photo)

Alastair Cook is the man India wants, and that has been the norm of this series so far. On Saturday too, the skipper's dogged batting inspired England's turnaround. His 209-ball 87 runs innings had 10 fours and a six. (BCCI Photo)
