Again from the BBC, Saturday is showing as a sunshine and showers mix through to 7pm with rain percentage chances indicating that they could truly be in the lap of the gods re anything from little to plenty outdoor play. Sunday is indeed showing as dry.

Yes, just heard the announcement from the umpire on the stream, desperately hope this is nothing serious

Swan seemed to be distracted with a left hand / wrist problem, did she take a tumble, I only started watching at 4-4 all

Would rather that than an issue with her back even if it means she has to pull out of this match

Alicia takes the second set against Kruger - only 22 years old, about 110 now and previously top-30

Alicia was a break down before winning 4 games on the bounce, Katie has just consolidated her break to go 4-2 up in the second set as well

Some very good tennis from the British girls on court at the moment whatever happens.

Katie had a match point but is broken with back to back doubles - wind is tough.

5-5*

Alicia loses 6-2 in the third but a good effort against a good grass courter.

Katie breaks again for *6-5

But breaks again immediately and will have a second chance to serve for it at *6-5.
