Auckland v Moodie - Mumbai rd2
Permalink  

This match has just started

Hopefully Greenleaf can do commentary

Moodie and Auckland have played 3 times before. Moodie won 6-3, 6-0 on indoor carpet in early 2002. Auckland won 7-6, 6-4 on indoor hard in 2003 and Moodie won 6-4, 7-6 the same year in the semis of the Wrexham challenger.

Moodie has had some impressive results in the past few months after a poor 1st half of the year, he reached the 3rd round of the US Open, beating Mirnyi and Monfils before losing to Nadal. He also reached the quarters of ATP Washington and the Surbiton final.

He's got a massive 1st serve and is predominately a serve-volleyer so James will need to return and pass well

Moodie leads 3-2. He's hit 7 aces in 3 games so far, including 6 in the first two games.

Auckland has saved 1 bp but held to 15 in his last service game

James did well there, came up with several badly needed big serves to dig himself out of that spot of bother. He couldn't afford to be broken there

4-4

Moodie serving:

0-15

15-15
