Dream first Test strike for Panesar - then he captures wicket of hero Kaif
Luton's Monty Panesar captured a dream first Test wicket when he claimed the scalp of the great Sachin Tendulkar in Nagpur.
Panesar, 23, dismissed the legendary batsman as England took control of the opening Test in India.
Magical Monty's big moment came when Tendulkar was trapped lbw for 16.
Panesar later captured the crucial wicket of India's saviour Mohammad Kaif.
Kaif was bowled by Panesar for 91 after rescuing his side from a perilous 190 for seven.
India closed the day on 322 for nine, 71 runs behind England.
