    *Evans 4-6 2-2 Norrie

    Wide serve from Dan Evans and he scuttles to the net to finish off the point with a slapped volley.

    Cameron Norrie is once again making him work for the hold, though... an off-balance Evans stings a backhand long and it's 40-30.

    This is a very intriguing match. I think Cameron Norrie will be fancying his chances even more, given that Evans was so busy last week, and Norrie is a very handy competitor.

    *Evans 4-6 2-2 Norrie

    Really good rally, as Evans comes into the net and seemingly has Norrie on the run, but the younger Brit manages to reach a drop volley and winds it beyond the stranded Evans. 15-15.

    Dan Evans is non too impressed about being given a time violation...

    Evans 4-6 2-1 Norrie*

    Interesting exchange between Dan Evans and the umpire - Evans is suggesting he shouldn't have got a time violation after his code violation, because it took time to give him the initial punishment.

    "I can't just go straight into the serve after a code violation," he says.

    Evans 4-6 2-1 Norrie*

    Cam Norrie is up quickly on the Dan Evans serve to dice a backhand winner across court, it just kisses the opposite tramline, but Evans puts his foot down to hold.

  8. Postpublished at 07:11 Greenwich Mean Time 9 February 2021

    *Evans 4-6 1-1 Norrie

    Norrie is managing to engage Evans in long exchanges on the British number one's serve, and it's bearing fruit - he gets the better of the opening rally on Evans' serve, before Evans moves forward to fire down a forehand winner. 30-15.

    Cameron Norrie accelerates to 40-0, and then holds to love with a lovely down-the-line forehand.

    Evans 4-6 1-0 Norrie*

    Dan Evans is finding it hard to get over the line... the hustling and bustling Cam Norrie drags it back to deuce once more, before Evans leaps into a sweeping forehand winner.

    This time, surely? Norrie miscues and Evans holds. Big, big game at the start of this second set.

    *Evans 4-6 0-0 Norrie

    That's an angry winner from Evans! He throws everything into a smash on the bounce to dust off the break point.

    *Evans 4-6 0-0 Norrie

    Uh oh.

    Dan Evans receives a code violation for an obscenity - although I'm not quite sure what he said - and after briefly arguing with the umpire he also lands a time violation.

    Amid all that Cameron Norrie has a chance to break...

  14. Postpublished at 07:01 Greenwich Mean Time 9 February 2021

    *Evans 4-6 0-0 Norrie

    Now then, Cameron Norrie fights back to deuce with three successive points.

    It forces Dan Evans to dig deep, and he does with a ferocious forehand winner that's worthy of a fist shake from the British number one.

  15. Postpublished at 06:58 Greenwich Mean Time 9 February 2021

    *Evans 4-6 0-0 Norrie

    Much better movement from Evans, conjuring up a serve-and-volley winner - one of the rare occasions we've seen him venture to the net today.

    He flies in again but Norrie reads it this time and gets the 30-year-old backpedaling towards his own baseline. 40-15.

  16. Postpublished at 06:57 Greenwich Mean Time 9 February 2021

    *Evans 4-6 0-0 Norrie

    Dan Evans gets the second set under way, with court eight now partially covered in the shadows.

    The British number one has a little glance towards the sun as if to tell it to get a move on, and then rattles down a couple of tasty serves to make it 30-0.

  17. Game and first set - Norriepublished at 06:52 Greenwich Mean Time 9 February 2021

    Evans 4-6 Norrie

    Dan Evans stretches for a forehand, it fades off his strings and into the guts of the net.

    Cameron Norrie takes the opening set!

  18. Postpublished at 06:50 Greenwich Mean Time 9 February 2021

    Evans 4-5 Norrie*

    Good from Norrie, forcing Evans wide and the British number one can only fire a forehand off target.

    Two set points.

  19. Postpublished at 06:50 Greenwich Mean Time 9 February 2021

    Evans 4-5 Norrie*

    Bit of a wild forehand from Dan Evans on the run. That's more likely to trouble the fans walking between courts in Melbourne Park. 30-15.

  20. Postpublished at 06:48 Greenwich Mean Time 9 February 2021

    Evans 4-5 Norrie*

    Right, Cameron Norrie's chance to serve for the opening set... he sprints in to meet a short ball and spins a forehand beyond Dan Evans for 15-0. Cool as his cucumber-coloured shirt.
