Cricket: Graeme Swann enjoyed a dream start to his Test career to spark England's fightback against India's strong batting line-up to claim the upper hand in the opening Test.
Just four days after landing again on Indian soil following a week of discussions about safety and security, England delivered a stunning display with bat and ball to dominate their illustrious opponents.
Their superb display was typified by debutant Swann, who became only the second bowler in Test history - following Richard Johnson's feat against Zimbabwe at Chester-le-Street in 2003 - to claim two wickets in his maiden over.
Swann's achievement in claiming lbw appeals against Gautam Gambhir and Rahul Dravid reduced India to 37 for three in reply to England's 316 and by the close of the third day they had slumped to 155 for six and trailed by 161 runs, a significant deficit on a pitch showing signs of wear.
