Is anyone else watching this? The doubles is pretty tense at the moment although GB are leading 1-0 in sets.

Kyle Edmund was perhaps a little bit unfortunate yesterday or maybe it was just a lack of experience showing but I really thought/hoped that from 2-0 up he'd go on to win that first game.

//edit argh one set all, we could really do with Jamie Murray playing as well as he can to win this as right now he doesn't seem to be hitting top form.

Jamie did step it up a bit in the final set I think and Darcis seemed to just tighten up and couldn't buy a return for several games in a row but however it worked GB are now 2-1 up in the tie with the reverse singles still to play tomorrow. If Andy can repeat his recent performance over Goffin I'll be very happy indeed.

I didn't manage to watch the final match on TV but what a magnificent achievement and although it'll be Andy that gets almost all the plaudits the rest of the team has all played a part at vital points.

I had hoped that Del Potro not taking part in the last match meant that Britain had a better chance and maybe it did but Mayer played very well. Bit of a gamble by Argentina not to play Del Potro but it paid off.
