Great Britain has taken a 2-1 lead over Australia in their Davis Cup semi-final tie. The Murray brothers, Andy and Jamie, teamed up to defeat Lleyton Hewitt and Sam Groth 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 6-7 (6-8), 6-4 in front of 8,000 partisan fans in Glasgow, Scotland. The victory means that if Andy Murray wins his singles match on Sunday afternoon, Britain will reach their first Davis Cup final in 37 years. The British number one is expected to face Australian number one Bernard Tomic, although the line-ups can be changed up to an hour before play begins. The action gets under way at 4pm UAE time.
