In the second set Our pair broke Bob's serve in 1st game but Bryans fought back breaking Aisam's serve in 4th game and then they take another break in 6th game breaking Rohan's serve to lead 2-4 ... With that crucial break they won the second set ... In third set Bryans take early break after breaking Aisam's serve in 3rd game but our pair immediately responded breaking Mike's serve in next game ... Match suspended due to bad light at 5-all ...

At $75K+H Nottingham Challenger, Great Britain (Grass)

[R1] (2) Somdev Devvarman (IND,66) l Marinko Matosevic (AUS,146) 46 63 62

Sommy started well with a single break he won the first set ... But from late second set he struggled with his serve and Matosevic take full advantage of it ... He broke Sommy once in the second set and twice in the final set ... In the final set Sommy's first serve percentage was 39% ... Disappointing result for Sommy considering Matosevic also don't like to play on the grass.
