Nadal is really struggling with his knee now, especially when serving. If Murray can hold his serve, this could be over quickly.

Struggling being the word - he doesn't look in pain as such, but he looks genuinely fucked off with it.

I agree about Nadal being there for the taking dubs, but he's proved on a few occasions in this match, he is an absolute beast of a player. I'd prefer to not think about Murray losing it from here! He has an absolute stranglehold on this match now, and it's well deserved.

2nd set tiebreaker it is! What a match so far.

............. and Murray breaks straight back! Some contest this.

Nadal breaks Murray to lead 4-2 in the second set - immediately after the players having an enforced 10(ish) minutes break due to the Australia Day celebratory fireworks.

Second go............... Keys to your Love - Rolling Stones Speed of Sound - Coldplay Candle in the Wind - Elton John I Can Change - John Legend Get Off of My Cloud - Rolling Stones Before You Accuse Me - Eric Clapton (unplugged) Beat It - Michael Jackson Songbird - Oasis (Radio One Live Lounge version) EternalLife - Jeff Buckley You Should Belong To Me - Ray LaMontagne

This could go horribly wrong, here goes.......................... The Fratellis - Mistress Mabel Bruce Springsteen (legend) - Blinded by the Light (Live in Dublin) Rod Stewart - Reason to Believe (MTV Unplugged) U2 & Green Day - The Saints are Coming Primal Scream - Rocks James Morrison - Man in the Mirror (acoustic, fucking awesome) James - Sound Bruce Springsteen (legend) - State Trooper Oasis - The Shock of the Lightning The Rolling Stones - Emotional Rescue I am pleasantly surprised at that!

Darts Cricket is fuckin AWESOME!

I would think that you should separate your game - spend as much time on your doubles as you would do on scoring (whether that's aiming for the sixty, or T19's or whatever). Alternate it as well - if you have a spare two hours of an evening, do an hour of doubles then an hour of trying to hit ton+'s. That's only my advice, and I'm sure that all the guys on here are a damn sight better throwers than I am - see what they say!

Here's the BBC Story in full - Hearns comments at the end are inflammatory to say the least! They might be true, but Olly Crofts history of "it's ma game, and you're no playing" is clear for all to see.

A cracking final. Really good spectacle - Adams can close a match out, no doubt about it. Chizzy - what can you say, just like Whitlock, he's had a helluva tough route to the final - getting there was an achievement in itself! Well done to him. Cracking end to a cracking tournament!

Yep,as much as it pains me to say it Chizzy aint going to win 3 sets without reply. His doubles have really let him down. Tell you what though, his style might be a bit plodding and methodical, but I've been mighty impressed with Adams.

YAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!! Go on yerself Chizzy, 4-4!! He can win this - hope he's telling himself that, he can defo win this!

I am absolutely WILLING these doubles from Chizzy to go in! He's showing some bottle up there, no doubts about it. Game on!!

Thank god I'm watching it muted online. He's bloody horrific. Chizzy is wasting too many chances methinks.

First set to Adams, with Chizzy having his chances. Heavy scoring from him, but Adams making the doubles count.

12 dart leg from Chizzy to start, with two 180's thrown in. Impressive boy, keep it up son!

Can't wait for the final - Chizzy will push Adams very close, although i think Adams will probably win by a couple of sets. I hope not though. EDIT - 200 pages! Good work fellas!

Sorry, but that 116 was absolutely fuckin awesome, for ANY standard! Talk about bottle! Cannae quite believe this comeback.

Adams 2-0 up in next to no time, playing some lovely stuff too.

Did you not see my last one? I'm sure it was along the lines of Waites being the only winner once it went to 4-4! Cue a last set 3-0 win for Phillips! I'm murder! Incidentally, that was a cracking 79 outshot for Thompson to level it up at 1 set all.

I think Murray has been brilliant. He seems to have a good wee rapport going with Bobby G. And the afternoon highlights I've seen, Croft has been a brilliant summariser. His commentary is only, oooh, about a thousand times better than Tony Green. The guy is like Sid Waddell in first gear. Gibbers pish, but at a slower speed. EDIT - cracking first leg there from Adams. Starts with a 180, ends up with five darts at mad house. Love it! I can see Thompson getting a doing here.

I was out my seat. Absolutely fantastic, considering the doubles he'd missed earlier. He goes on to take it 5-4, leaving Mrs 2 Hotty gutted. What a match.

Is it a cracking comeback, or is it the underdog not being able to finish the job? It's riveting stuff, whatever it is. Can only see Waites winning it now.
