    It's been a real turnaround in that first set, a complete change of energy, picked their levels up. It's very demoralising for the opponents and hard to get back on top when you show your nerves and fragility.

  2. Mattek-Sands/Murray 6-5 Krejcikova/Mektic*

    The Czech-Croat combo have misplaced their compass - the shot-making is very erratic now.

    30-15 as Krejcikova goes very long with her lob before Mektic goes wide with his return.

    BMS and Murray eventually hold and go ahead in the set.

  3. GB-US pair break back

    *Mattek-Sands/Murray 5-5 Krejcikova/Mektic

    Mektic double faults.

    Shambles, really.

  4. Mattek-Sands/Murray 4-5 Krejcikova/Mektic*

    Good serve, but it's still break point. No advantage in this mixed doubles at deuce.

  5. Mattek-Sands/Murray 4-5 Krejcikova/Mektic*

    Now then.

    Break point as Mektic goes long from the back.

    He's lost his cool.

  6. Annabel Croft
    Former British number one on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra

    I'm not sure I have seen Jamie Murray miss a volley. And not only does he not miss, he puts that ball away.

  7. Mattek-Sands/Murray 4-5 Krejcikova/Mektic*

    He might be sweating now - the Croat finds the net with a volley.

    30s each.

  8. Mattek-Sands/Murray 4-5 Krejcikova/Mektic*

    Croat Mektic smacks down his first ace - 30-0.

    He's not sweating - cooler than a warehouse of chest freezers.

  9. Annabel Croft
    Former British number one on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra

    I think Jamie makes the decisions - he is discussing where he's going to serve. He is going to serve over her head, which is quite worrying!

    It is hard to believe the way Mattek-Sands bounces round the court that she dislocated her knee in 2017, and all the things she went through to reconstruct it. It is unbelievable what she has been through, but she brings so much joy to the court.

  10. Mattek-Sands/Murray 4-5 Krejcikova/Mektic*

    Krejcikova has the chance to go down the line but tries crosscourt and finds the net. Wrong move.

    30-0 before Murray slaps a volley out of reach.

    The Scot then fires down an ace. Mektic to now serve for the set.

  11. *Mattek-Sands/Murray 3-5 Krejcikova/Mektic

    That's soon 40-0 before the Czech player sends down another brilliant first serve.

  12. Annabel Croft
    Former British number one on BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra

    That is unusual, I am very surprised at Mattek-Sands watching Sofia Kenin from her box earlier - you would think you would want to be in the locker room preparing, relaxing and not getting too emotionally spent.

  13. Mattek-Sands/Murray 3-4 Krejcikova/Mektic*

    *Fanfare* - Krejcikova serves the first ace of the match. Great placement.

  14. Mattek-Sands/Murray 3-4 Krejcikova/Mektic*

    But the GB-US pair fight back to hold serve.

    Good serving from BMS in that game having come under some pressure from the opposition.

  15. *Mattek-Sands/Murray 2-4 Krejcikova/Mektic

    BMS serving.

    15-15 after Mektic sends the American to the Tasman Sea.

    Krejcikova then follows up with another cracking return. 15-30.

  16. *Mattek-Sands/Murray 2-4 Krejcikova/Mektic

    Jamie Murray leaves a volley from Barbora Krejcikova, but the Czech player applies enough fade for the ball to land just within bounds.

    The fifth seeds hold.

  17. Mattek-Sands/Murray 2-3 Krejcikova/Mektic*

    No panicking from Krejcikova-Mektic.

    First Krejcikova wins a point with a stabbing volley down the middle before Mektic does the same.

    30-0.

    30-15.

    Murray has been able to work on his weaknesses. He has been amazing in how he has really built his game.

  19. Mattek-Sands/Murray 2-3 Krejcikova/Mektic*

    Good solid serving from Jamie Murray sees GB-US pair hold.

    Can they now break the fifth seeds?

  20. *Mattek-Sands/Murray 1-3 Krejcikova/Mektic

    Mektic is playing like a demon's demon - his flat forehand lands in the sweet spot in-between the tramlines.

    15s each.
