    Gary Anderson 1-0 Peter Wright*

    Ando with a statement of intent straight from the off. He throws a magnificent 180 to get the ball rolling and bags another maximum soon after.

    He wins the opening leg with ease after taking out 82 on double four for a 12-darter. Lovely stuff.

    Gary Anderson v Peter Wright

    Thank you Gary. He's going to take a break while I take you through the next match. There was smoke coming off his keyboard last I saw..

    Anyway, here comes the colourful Scot himself, Peter Wright. He's switched up his look for the Cardiff crowd today. He's replaced the yellow with a purple mowhawk. Stunning.

    Dave Chisnall 5-10 Mensur Suljovic

    Mensur Suljovic told BBC Sport:

    "I feel so happy. This is a great moment in my life and I beat Chizzy, this is perfect for me.

    "I played well and I am happy that I have won.

    "I think I have no chance of winning this tournament. I never thought I would reach the semi-final. I played okay but the best players are still here."

    Dave Chisnall 5-10 Mensur Suljovic

    Paul Nicholson
    2010 Players Championship winner

    The last couple of weeks he's played very ordinary, but something's clicked this week.

    When he plays well, his average is always around 99.

    He was only one or two darts head of Dave Chisnall in that match, but his timing was impeccable.

    Dave Chisnall 5-10 Mensur Suljovic

    The Gentle's dream weekend continues!

    Mensur takes out double 8 to seal the win and tops Group B with three wins.

    He'll play the runner up in Group A in the semi-finals.

    Dave Chisnall 5-9 Mensur Suljovic*

    Brilliant. Simply brilliant from Suljovic.

    Left with 125, he hits outer bull, treble 20 and double top.

    He's one leg away from victory.

    *Dave Chisnall 5-8 Mensur Suljovic

    Bonkers!

    Dave Chisnall hits two 180s in the leg, but Mensur still takes it on double 16.

    And there's the trademark 'head pump' from the big Austrian to celebrate.

    Dave Chisnall 5-7 Mensur Suljovic*

    Nice from Chizzy!

    A 177 leave him with double 18 which he takes out with his second dart.

    Mensur was lurking on 36. Chizzy is just about hanging on.

    *Dave Chisnall 4-7 Mensur Suljovic

    Blimey, Mensur misses three darts at double 16.

    But he does land it eventually to move three away from victory.

    Chizzy's finding the treble five way too much.

    Don't forget, coming up next we've got the winner takes it all match in Group B.

    World number three Peter Wright goes up against world number two Gary Anderson.

    Battle of the Scots for a place in the semi-finals. Huge!

    Dave Chisnall 4-6 Mensur Suljovic*

    Mensur misses a double, firing under tops.

    Chizzy stays alive with double 4.

    The players go off for a short break.

    Mensur's finishing is something else.

    Left with 74, he goes for treble 18 (of course he does) and then double 10.

    75% on the doubles for The Gentle.

    Dave Chisnall 3-5 Mensur Suljovic*

    My word Chizzy needed that.

    Suljovic misses a dart at the bull for the leg and Chisnall nails double 16 - middle of the bed.

    This game does have the feeling of a bit of a dead rubber, which it is of course.

    It's not really got going yet.

    *Dave Chisnall 2-5 Mensur Suljovic

    Five out of six on the doubles for The Gentle. Incredible.

    He takes out double 10 with ease. This is a huge statement of intent from the world number seven.
