    *Edmund 6-7 (3-7) 1-2 Norrie

    Edmund looks as though he's giving in a little but Norrie can't capitalise as his forehand loops wide. Bit of a missed opportunity.

    *Edmund 6-7 (3-7) 1-2 Norrie

    Norrie just about seems to have the upper hand in this second set but there's little to separate them.

    Edmund falters on a cross-court backhand to give the first point to Norrie and the second goes the same way as he mishits his forehand.

    Norrie is bouncing on his toes again, he's going to go after this one. Luckily for Edmund it's an ace.

    Kyle is not in the mood for chatting!

    Kyle Edmund keeps it short and sweet as he puts the headset on to speak to the Amazon Prime commentators:

    "If I can just pick up my level a bit more. I'm starting to feel like it in the last two games.

    "It's everything really."

    Edmund 6-7 (3-7) 1-1 Norrie*

    A big serve from Edmund and he just about manages to wrestle the hold from Norrie. The British number three is making this as challenging as he possibly can.

    *Edmund 6-7 (3-7) 0-1 Norrie

    But Edmund doesn't look too disheartened on his service game initially. He races to 40-0, before hitting a backhand long.

    Things unravel a little again, though. A forehand into the tape brings up deuce.

    Edmund has lost his balance of play. Norrie has deceptively good movement and Edmund has not quite adjusted to that - he's trying to hit winners off balls that Norrie will get to.

    Edmund 6-7 (3-7) 0-0 Norrie*

    "Very good," Norrie's coach tells him as he steps up to serve in the second set.

    Edmund gets no such praise as his forehand lands just wide.

    The timing is really effortless from Norrie, the understanding that you don't have to swing that far back to get the power.

    I'm going to pick Norrie in the tie-break. I think he is looking the more confident and the more comfortable.
