Good stuff and good week for the Joe and partner. Shame Joe isnt into Australian Open, although hopefully Cerretani can keep it up with Neal Skupski.
Given his playing with GB partners, does Cerretani have a background with any of the Brits , such as US colleges or anything? Or any GB heritage (admittedly he sounds more Italian than British but you never know).
Joe's & James' match was still in progress when I left for work, though they'd just taken the first set. Pleased to see, having arrived by an incredibly circuitous route, thanks to Tube & train trouble, that they were able to close it out.
Final: Enrique López & Pedro Martínez (ESP/ESP) CR 507 (297+210) vs (2) James Cerretani (USA) & Joe Salisbury CR 192 (88+104)
It looks like a win will see Joe just crack the top 100 again - he has Sascha Zverev just ahead of him, then Isner, troicki and Fognini - holding some good company at the moment!

Yes, looks as if Joe has just got himself back into the top 100. Has Dallas Challenger title points ( with David O'Hare ) to come off at the beginning of February, but hopefully this is a week he can build on,
