*Shock alert*

Serbia's Ana Ivanovic, the fifth seed, is OUT! She loses 1-6 6-3 6-2 to Lucie Hradecka, who is ranked 142nd in the world, to become the fist big-name casualty at Melbourne this year.

John Batty:, external Think this could be Murray's year. His camp seems settled and the usual big guns don't seem to be on top form.

Andy Murray moves 30-0 ahead as opponent Yuki Bhambri grimaces and taps the back of his head with his strings. Another unforced error gives Murray two set points. One will do. Bhambri's forehand return is long and Murray moves within a set of the second round.

Any hopes that Andy Murray has of not having to serve out quickly disappear as Yuki Bhambri eases to a comfortable hold. And that's exactly what the Briton is after now as he serves for the second set...

Top selfie work Lucy. Even better that you've not stooped to the low of using a 'selfie stick'...

Credit to Yuki Bhambri - this lad has got bouncebackability in spades. He leads 30-0, then 40-15 as he aims to instantly break back and level. The Indian has a chance at 40-30 as he pounds the Murray base-line, but then crashes a sliced return into the net. Let off for the Briton, who forces deuce before seeing out the game with an ace down the middle. One game from taking a two set to love lead...

That could be just about that for the second set. Two break points for Murray, who took command with a simply stunning cross-court backhand at 15-0. Only he will know how he managed to pull that shot out of the top drawer. The Briton hits base line after base line as he holds two break points, with Bhambri helping him out by finally crumbling with a long return.

Andy Murray's serve has not looked in danger during this second set. And he holds once again as Yuki Bhambri's slices a half volley into the net.

Andy Murray, like a hungry wolf, is smelling blood now. The world number six looks like he's had enough of this pesky opponent, pouncing quickly to move 30-0 ahead.

Oh, hang on. Bhambri has different ideas. The Indian wins three straight points to move within one of another hold, but then gets a little giddy and slices a backhand into the net. Deuce it is.

Murray is an advantage behind before slapping a forehand return long - and Bhambri whoops with delight.

Confident stuff from Andy Murray. The Briton blasts through his service game, winning to love. Simple.

Legendary coach Nick Bollettieri: "It is hard to believe that Bhambri is 317th in the world rankings after seeing some of his shots here. It just shows that it is the mental part - the self-belief - that makes the difference."

Excellent stuff from Bhambri, as the world number 317 has Murray on the run. A couple of little jump shots - "trick shots" says 5 live's David Law put him 30-0 to the good.

But Murray imposes himself again with a powerful cross-shot return which leaves Bhambri floundering. He didn't enjoy being 'mugged off' by his Indian opponent.

The pair trade blows as we go to deuce, then it is advantage Murray after a massive forehand down the line. However, Bhambri holds on as they go for a well-earned sit down and swig of water.

Break point for...Yuki Bhambri. I didn't see that one coming. Andy Murray battles back though, forcing deuce before ending Bhambri's hopes of an early breakthrough with a stinging ace.

Piers Newbery
BBC Sport at Melbourne Park

"Murray is in control despite that mid-set slip in the opener. There is drama off court, sort of, as some spectators in the front row complain to the umpire that they can't see past the sizeable canopies above the players' chairs. The ball boys are now dutifully taking them down after each changeover. If it's not one thing...."

The pair stroll back on to court in a sunny Melbourne. Yuki Bhambri, making his Slam debut remember, holds his serve comfortably. Not that it worries Murray's fans to much - including those four guys each wearing a T-shirt with the letters A, N, D and Y. They get everywhere.

Legendary coach Nick Bollettieri: "Getting through that first set is a good sign for Andy Murray. I liked his serve, it was much more improved. And it was nice to see him get frustrated a little. That's his style."

And there it is. Routine game for Andy Murray as he eases to three set points. But he only needs one of them. Advantage Murray.

Instant break point for Andy Murray. And the Briton shouts in celebration as Yuki Bhambri's return goes long. Or has it? No! The top spin ensures the ball dusts the line and Murray looks sheepish.

But moments later he is celebrating for definite. Another Bhambri return is too strong and sails past the base-line. Serving for the set...

Jake Gledhill:, external After 2012, Murray has been left behind by the other Big Four members, and the young guns are catching up, can't see him winning Australian Open.
