    *Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 1-5 Zheng

    Zheng lets out a roar after burying a forehand and a fine first serve helps her seal the hold.

    Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 1-4 Zheng*

    Zheng takes her ace tally to 10 in this match - and a tournament-leading 44 this fortnight - with three in succession to take charge on serve from 0-15 down.

    But a couple of misses later and Kaliskaya has an opportunity she probably didn't expect to get only moments ago.

    Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 1-4 Zheng*

    Zheng Qinwen is waiting at the back of the court. She wants to get on with this, with the semi-finals in her sights.

    It looks like Anna Kalinskaya may have a bit of tightness in her hip following two demanding hours on Rod Laver Arena this evening - not to mention the matches that have come before this over the past 10 days.

    She's going to be fine to continue, at least.

    Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 1-4 Zheng*

    A medical timeout for Anna Kalinskaya, who is getting treatment on her right leg at the side of the court.

    Hopefully she'll be able to see this out. It could also give her a bit of thinking time as she attempts to find a route back into this.

    Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 1-4 Zheng*

    Zheng Qinwen just has too much for Anna Kalinskaya now. The 12th seed is overpowering and outworking her opponent and she has one foot in the semi-finals as she clinches the double break.

    A fourth game in a row leaves her two from victory.

    Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev are beginning their warm-ups.

    *Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 1-3 Zheng

    Zheng, oozing confidence now, carefully watches an overhead and smashes the ball in for 30-30 on her opponent's serve.

    Is she going to finish this off right here?

    Kalinskaya yields under pressure. Break point.

    Zheng is on a roll now, at the perfect moment too.

    She backs up the break to love with a love hold, making it 12 points without response as she threatens to run away with this match.

    Has Kalinskaya got anything left?

    Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 1-2 Zheng*

    Zheng Qinwen makes the breakthrough in the deciding set!

    A backhand winner clinches the break at the end of a messy game by Anna Kalinskaya.

    How costly could that prove to be? She has time to get herself back into this, but with the 12th seed hitting her stride it's certainly not going to be easy.

    *Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 1-1 Zheng

    Kalinskaya finds herself in a tight spot at 0-30 and a miss on the backhand hands over three break points.

    *Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 1-1 Zheng

    Are you backing the 12th seed or the underdog from here?

    You sense, as proved the case in the second set, a single break could be enough for either player to take this decider. One lapse in concentration is all it takes.

    Zheng holds with in her opening service game as we approach the two-hour mark.

  11. Kalinskaya holdspublished at 10:22 Greenwich Mean Time 24 January

    Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 1-0 Zheng*

    *Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 Zheng

    A clean backhand winner gets Anna Kalinskaya on the board after a double fault first up.

    That's nice from Zheng Qinwen, though, popping over a forehand despite being stretched into the corner, and she wrestles herself to deuce with another winner.

  13. Postpublished at 10:17 Greenwich Mean Time 24 January

    *Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 Zheng

    Anna Kalinskaya will serve to get this deciding set under way.

    Both players have nipped for a bathroom break before the third set.

    Which one is this way going?

    Maybe that sense of urgency - the fact that she had to win this set to stay in the match - helped Zheng that bit more.

  16. Game and second set - Zhengpublished at 10:11 Greenwich Mean Time 24 January

    *Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-6 0-0 Zheng

    Zheng makes the perfect start as she aims to serve out the set but a double fault stops her progress.

    Zheng goes on the attack and may just get her reward her.

    The 12th seed has a first break point of the set at 30-40 after Kalinskaya misses a backhand...

    Gets it! Zheng is able to take full advantage as Kalinskaya suffers a dip, the Russian conceding the break with a couple of misses.

    Now, a chance to serve for the set.

    *Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-4 Zheng

    Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 3-3 Zheng*

    The occasion, despite how unfamiliar it is to the world number 75, does not appear to be getting to Anna Kalinskaya at all.

    The Russian continues to look cool and calm as the second set unfolds, swiftly settling a hold to love.

  20. Zheng holdspublished at 09:57 Greenwich Mean Time 24 January

    *Kalinskaya 7-6 (7-4) 2-3 Zheng

    A very timely ace. Zheng gathers herself following that series of misses to hold serve. Still very little to separate these two!
