Wawrinka has definitely turned up here, hoping Nishikori can at least get a set out of it but he'll need something special to come back here because Wawrinka is on it right now, pulling out some phenomenal backhands.
Edit: He's just broken Wawrinka at the start of the third but given it straight back, might've missed his chance to get back into it.
Nishikori just saved 5 match points in a tiebreaker only to dump a drop shot into the net and lose it 8-6. Good match but such a poor final unforced error.

Murray responded superbly well to losing the first set. Berdych looks knackered now, fancy him to see this out in 4.

Brilliant. Stepped up at the crucial moment, delighted for him. Punching the air loads as well, he looks absolutely buzzing, gwan Andy

Another excellent performance.
Unless Wawrinka beats Djokovic, I think that guarantees Murray moves back up into 4th in the rankings. If he beats Djokovic, I think he'd jump Nadal into 3rd too.
Beating Djokovic will be a very tough ask though, he's on another level to everyone right now.

Genuinely think he'll beat either of them in the final too.

Djokovic/Wawrinka going to a fifth. Been a good ebb and flow to this match, and some superb play from both guys.

Great for Murray this. On yesterdays performance I think he'd beat either of these based on today. Been really impressed with commentary on Eurosport all tournament but today they've been a bit poor, bemoaning the quality of the match which I guess is because they expected more from previous encounters but still, it's been gripping.

Murray will take it in 5 sets I reckon.

Started well, this final. Murray had a little look at Djokovic's serve already. Usually a Djokovic fan but would like to see Murray get more Slams, especially AUS since he doesn't have it yet.

Murray breaks back. Djokovic looks reluctant to trade from the baseline which is... odd.

BBC coverage of this is annoying me, mostly the commentary. Some weird camera angles as well, although that's probably not the BBC.
