Colin having a mare on serve, troubled by ball toss and unable to pressure their opponents' returns

Colin broken for the fourth time in a row, commies say he has only won two points on serve so far.

It's really windy down his end, and his high ball toss is not suited.

Finally Colin comes up with four good first serves and holds, 6-5*. They should have a chance on the vulnerable Sa serve next.
