And two huge break points for the Special Ks!

I am pleased that [Ebden and Purcell] have made some sort of inroads into Kyrgios's game... but no reward for it in the end.

Did he mean to leave that!? Kyrgios swipes at a ball but then retracts his racquet in mid flight and it drops long. He holds! Just.

Big serve from the main protagonist in this final and his bezzie mate Kokkinakis slaps it away on the volley for good measure. Kyrgios can't put Ebden away though and we're back to deuce.

A spot of bother for the Special Ks... Kyrgios flunks a forehand long and that's deuce.

So Nick Kyrgios finds himself serving to stay in the opening set, but edges to a 30-0 lead before Matthew Ebden is presented the chance to pop away a volley.

Kyrgios responds by lobbing both and hollering "yeah, boy" at his effort before it even anchors down. What a beaut. 40-30.

Kokkinakis must have a deal with that net cord... another drops in his favour, this time a forehand that skims up and over the waiting racquet of Purcell.

The visor-topped Purcell eventually gets over the line.

"Yeah, let's go!" says Purcell after winning a third successive point with a serve that cannot be returned. Kokkinakis turns to some power of his own, a fierce forehand for deuce.

A fizzing serve from Max Purcell when he needed it most, a quick whisper to his mate and then another bullet off that almost rips the racquet from Thanasi Kokkinakis' grasp. 30-30.

Oooh! We're getting to the business end and Kyrgios spins in delight as Ebden shanks an overhead volley long. 0-30, and a sniff for the Special Ks...

A second ace of the match for Thanasi Kokkinakis. That'll do the trick. The Aussie wins motors to 40-15 on his serve with a dipping forehand before Max Purcell finds some troubling depth on his return. It's a brief blemish as Kokkinakis holds. It remains all square.

Miles Maclagan, former British Davis Cup player, on Eurosport:

"Incredible reflexes from Purcell, just limiting the options.

"It's the best that doubles has to offer, angles, skills on display and a bit of power."

Brilliant! What a point that is. Nick Kyrgios manages to find more angles than a Trigonometry class as the Special Ks win the point and then at 40-15 down loops one through his legs, before Thanasi Kokkinakis whips a winner down the line.

Ebden and Purcell come through to hold, but the entertainment has begun.

Another solid service game from Nick Kyrgios, although he fails to find the channel with Matthew Ebden lurking to tickle it away before Thanasi Kokkinakis wraps up the hold.

Someone in the crowd waves a box of Special K around!

Neither pair have been able to break serve yet.

Kyrgios leaps into a forehand volley and follows it up with a sliced effort, but Ebden has the run on him and dinks it deep. 15-15.

Big fan of Thanasi Kokkinakis' shorts - although they might look more suited to the beach than the final of a Grand Slam.

Max Purcell signs off a love hold with an ace that skips beyond his opponent before he can blink.

A nice little exchange between Kyrgios and Kokkinakis brings a chuckle from the crowd, and then they hold. Important to back the chatter up.

Some serious punch on serve from the Special Ks. Kokkinakis rips down a series of wrist-rattling efforts before Ebden sizzles a well-angled backhand. 30-30.

Miles Maclagan, former British Davis Cup player, on Eurosport:

"Ebden doesn't quite possess the power of his opponents, so looking more for precise placement.

"Athletic from Purcell."
