Got to feel confident that Jamie and Bruno can beat Kopfer and Ruusovouri - I dont see Kopfer as a doubles player personally. Joe and Rajeev will have a v tought fight there but I think they can take it; Jonny and Aisam are outsiders against a v good pair.

2 out of 3 would be nice!

Got the 2, Jonny will be a bonus now!

Jonny and AIsam putting up a fight here - could be heading to a 2nd set tie break (5 all), set down 7-5
