I see that Joe & Rajeev had one MP at 6-5* in the second set TB. The very first mini break of the TB came though against them at *6-7 and that was the set.

Joe and Rajeev *5-5.

Looks like heading for a 3rd TB.

Not been a break of serve in the match. Joe+ have had 5 BPs to 0 though 4 came in the first set that they finally won anyway. Have been no BPs in the final set.

Courts are so fast , doubles always likely to be fine margins on these courts with bigger servers

Absolutely horrendous sportsmanship from the Aussies, never seen anything like it.

Thought they'ed blown it with the 2 serve points from *4-3 when Rajeev somehow managed to net a volley from just about on top of the net and then Joe double faulted. But they then saved it from 4-6*.

Great serving towards the end.
