India discard Harbhajan Singh [Images] impressed on his first outing for county team Surrey by picking three wickets to help bundle out Durham for a paltry 191 in the first innings of their four-day County Championship Division One match at the Oval in London [Images].

Harbhajan, ignored for India's ongoing tour of England [Images], captured three quick wickets with some controlled off-spin as Durham were dismissed for their lowest first innings total since August 2002.

Surrey's bowling spearhead Matthew Nicholson also took three wickets after Durham elected to bat on Sunday.

Wicketkeeper-batsman Phillip Mustard (70) was the only one to cross the half-century mark while captain Dale Benkenstein was the second highest scorer at 26 for Durham.

In reply, Surrey were 198 for 6 in 56.2 overs at the close of play. Stewart Walters (70) hit a half-century but was out in the last over of the day.
