• 7.15am GMT07:15 Tennis Australia 'deeply regrets' impact of Djokovic saga
• 6.12am GMT06:12 Day three's order of play
• 3.33am GMT03:33 Preamble

Fifth set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 7-6(5), 4-4 Murray* (*denotes next server) Basilashvili is unlucky on the opening point as the ball clips the tape and bounces out but he fights back and levels at 30-30 as he whips a forehand out of reach of the chasing Murray. A booming serve that Murray can’t return follows, with an ace to finish with!

Fifth set: *Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 7-6(5), 3-4 Murray (*denotes next server) Some quick hands from Basilashvili put him 15-0 ahead and when Murray reaches a drop shot only to put the ball out a point later, the pressure mounts on the Scot. His response? The second fastest serve of the day and an ace. But Murray loses the next point - with an unforced error he’s unhappy with himself for making - giving a break chance to the Georgian. An epic, nerve-shredding rally follows which Basilashvili wins with a backhand winner! There is a long way to go still!

Fifth set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 7-6(5), 2-4 Murray* (*denotes next server) Credit to Basilashvili, he’s refusing to lie down, despite a wobbly moment here at 40-30. He holds his nerve and serve and the spotlight falls back onto Murray.

Fifth set: *Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 7-6(5), 1-4 Murray (*denotes next server) Murray returns serve, as it were, with a love service game of his own and that must be a hammer blow for Basilashvili. He needs to find something special now.

Fifth set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 7-6(5), 1-3 Murray* (*denotes next server) Basilashvili levels the ace count at 12-12 to seal a love service game - sorely needed by the Georgian who had been absolutely steamrolled prior this set.

Fifth set: *Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 7-6(5), 0-3 Murray (*denotes next server) Make that nine after a Basilashvili error. Ace - 10. But that’s where Murray’s run ends, as the Georgian finally wins a point with a backhand winner. Still, Murray’s motor is still running and he consolidates that break to open up a three-game lead in the deciding set!

Fifth set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 7-6(5), 0-2 Murray* (*denotes next server) And Murray’s not messing about here - he breaks to love! That’s eight points straight he’s won since the tie-breaker. There’s life in the veteran’s limbs yet. How does Basilashvili respond?

Fifth set: *Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 7-6(5), 0-1 Murray (*denotes next server) So, how will Murray respond to the disappointment of missing the chance to finish this in four? Pretty well, if this love service hold is anything to go by.

Fourth set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 7-6(5) Murray (*denotes next server) Murray is left visibly frustrated early in the piece after Basilashvili finds the corner with a simply beautiful backhand winner to take a 2-1 lead. The Georgian then throws down an ace, he follows with another forehand winner and all of a sudden he leads 4-1. With it all to do, Murray fights hard but can’t make up the ground and with three chances to claim the set, Basilashvili does so - at the third time of asking and only after Murray finds the net! We’re going into a fifth and final set!

Fourth set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 6-6 Murray (*denotes next server) We’re heading to a tie-breaker! Murray holds his nerve. Who will hold theirs now?

Tennis Australia has issued a more comprehensive statement regarding the Novak Djokovic saga, saying it “deeply regrets” the impact it had on players in the build-up to the Open and that “there are always lessons to learn”.

Here’s the full statement:

The board of Tennis Australia, supported by its Member Associations, would like to issue the following statement in relation to Australian Open 2022. We would like to make clear from the outset that we respect the decision of the Immigration Minister and the finding of the Federal Court of Australia over the weekend.

Australian Open 2022 has now commenced, and our priority has always been to put on one of the world’s greatest sporting events and ensure we are delivering the best possible experience for all our players, the fans, and the community. The Australian Open is a showcase of Melbourne and Australia and much loved by players from all over the world.

Tennis Australia has been working closely with both the Federal and Victorian government for the past year to deliver a Covid safe Australian Open for the players, staff, and fans.

Embarking on a major international sporting event during a global pandemic that continues to evolve and challenge us all, is profoundly demanding for all stakeholders.

The board and member associations commend the Tennis Australia CEO and the entire Tennis Australia team for their hard work and dedication to delivering a spectacular summer of tennis.

As the Australian tennis family, we recognise that recent events have been a significant distraction for everyone, and we deeply regret the impact this had on all players.

There are always lessons to learn, and we will review all aspects of our preparation and implementation to inform our planning – as we do every year. That process always starts once the Australian Open champions have lifted their trophies.

Australia has a strong and proud tennis tradition, and it has been fantastic to see the crowds out cheering for the world’s best players in the lead up to and over the opening days of the Australian Open.

We, like the players, and all tennis fans here and around the world, are keen for the focus to now be on the game we are all so passionate about.

We are looking forward to a brilliant two weeks of tennis ahead.

Fourth set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 6-5 Murray* (*denotes next server) Basilashvili keeps his cool, despite the odd wobble. Again the pressure piles onto Murray’s shoulders and he must hold again now or face a fifth set.

Fourth set: *Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 5-5 Murray (*denotes next server) This is great tennis! Basilashvili makes a rare sortie to the net, from where he plays a neat volley to kick things off, but his decision-making then lets him down when he opts to play a drop shot a couple of points later, that doesn’t make it over the net. He still manages to bring up a set point, but Murray saves it before going on to hold - with a booming ace!

Fourth set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 5-4 Murray* (*denotes next server) This has got five sets written all over it, hasn’t it? Basilashvili holds and Murray’s break will have to wait. The pendulum of pressure swings the Scot’s way now and he’ll have to hold to stay in this fourth set.

Fourth set: *Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 4-4 Murray (*denotes next server) An anguished shout come from Basilashvili with Murray 30-15 up as the Georgian lashes a crosscourt backhand too wide. He knows that’s going to be costly and so it proves as Murray levels things up. Now would be a handy time for the Scot to come up with another break.

Fourth set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 4-3 Murray* (*denotes next server) Murray appears to be tiring now but Basilashvili fails to capitalise. A double fault puts the Georgian in trouble at break point and when an attempted lob goes out on the next point, Murray breaks and we’re back on serve in the fourth!

Fourth set: *Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 4-2 Murray (*denotes next server) Basilashvili has requested something from the umpire - not quite sure what it is, assume we will find out at the next changeover. The Georgian is moving freely and still hitting his winners on occasion though, notably on points one and two of this game, the second a devastating forehand return of serve. He goes on to bring up break point and another ferocious forehand puts some daylight between him and Murray.

Fourth set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 3-2 Murray* (*denotes next server) Basilashvili noses ahead again, sealing the deal with an ace -his second of this set, and 10th overall.

Fourth set: *Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 2-2 Murray (*denotes next server) Murray has to dig deep to stave off a break here. He saves a break point before advancing to the net and volleying with devastating outcome on the next. And when Basilashvili finds the net, there’s a sigh of relief in the British wildcard’s camp.

Fourth set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 2-1 Murray* (*denotes next server) The Georgian responds with a relatively comfortable hold of his own. The intensity of the end of the third set has died down a bit for now.

Fourth set: *Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 1-1 Murray (*denotes next server) On serve this fourth set as Murray holds. Let’s just check in on the unforced error count: Basilashvili leads 63-29 today, a stat that may well prove critical by the end of this match. The Georgian is also winning the winners count - 41-14. He can’t be accused of not going for his shots.

Fourth set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6, 1-0 Murray* (*denotes next server) Murray reaches for his side after stretching on one point in the first game of the fourth set, but he’s continues to move freely afterwards. Basilashvili holds.

At the changeover, time to quickly check in with last year’s runner-up, Daniil Medvedev, who was playing Henri Laaksonen of Switzerland on Rod Laver Arena. Medvedev, one of the favourites to lift the trophy a week on Sunday, is safely through after a 6-1, 6-4, 7-6(3) win and will next face the winner of tonight’s clash between Nick Kyrgios and Liam Broady.

Third set: *Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-6 Murray (*denotes next server) Murray patiently grinds out a couple of baseline rallies, the second of which brings up two set points. He finishes with an ace! No! It’s a let! They’ll play it again... he goes down the T, but it’s called out. But no bother, on his second service point, Basilashvili hits a backhand wide and the third set belongs to Murray!

Third set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 4-5 Murray* (*denotes next server) Murray wastes a couple of chances to seal the second set and Basilaschvili comes back strong with a couple of moster winners to eventually hold. But Murray will now serve for the second set...

Third set: *Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 3-5 Murray (*denotes next server) Murray’s serve is on point this game - two aces to kick off with and then a third follows before a fourth booming effort proves unreturnable for Basilashvili. Minimum energy expended there.

Third set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 3-4 Murray* (*denotes next server) Well, Murray looked exhausted during that last game, but he finds enough energy to break back immediately! He gets some help, again, from his opponent, who adds another three unforced errors to his tally, but it doesn’t matter where the points come from, Murray is back in front.

Third set: *Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 3-3 Murray (*denotes next server) Basilashvili breaks and we’re back on serve after another lengthy game - eight and a half minutes to be exact. Facing a third break point, Murray looks absolutely shattered - he leans on his racket and is then sent running all over the court by Basilashvili, who seals the break with a wonderfully deft drop shot that Murray hasn’t got the gas to reach. The Georgian is leading the winners count by a fine margin now - 33-11.

Third set: Basilashvili 1-6, 6-3, 2-3 Murray* (*denotes next server) This is compelling tennis in what could be a pivotal game in the third set! Basilashvili makes a poor decision as he hits a ball that Murray had no right to recover out and the outlook appears bleak for him as Murray brings up three break points. Yet he pulls out a pair of aces to help get himself out of trouble. From their on it’s a mixed bag - including some terrific winners, a dreadful smash into net - before a topsy-turvy game that lasts 10 minutes is finally brought to an end when he finds the net. Murray breaks!
