L32:  (12) Rohan Bopanna & Edouard Roger-Vasselin (IND/FRA) CR 50 (24+26) vs (WC) Frederik Nielsen (DEN) & Joe Salisbury CR 219 (139+80)

As intimated above:

L32:  (WC) Liam Broady & Scott Clayton CR 484 (376+108) vs Máximo González & Nicolás Jarry (ARG/CHI) CR 135 (58+77)

The South Americans saw off Kontinen & Peers (3) by 6-4 6-4 3-6 4-6 8-6.  Looks as though they could be adapting to the green stuff...  hmm

L32:  (15) Dominic Inglot & Franko Skugor (CRO) CR 67 (33+34) vs Marcelo Demoliner & Santiago González (BRA/MEX) CR 105 (48+57)

Some wonderful returning from the Skupski brothers to break serve. They take the first set 6-4 against QuereshI and Rojer.

The Skupskis break again in the seventh game of the second set. Rojer and Quereshi play very narrow, with i formation when serving and the Skupskis have made great use of the width of the court. Now need to consolidate.

I am getting nervous now. The brothers have QF points to defend from last year.

I know Bob. Just sensing that the Skupskis opponents are slightly changing their game to counter what the Skupskis have been doing so well.
