Welcome to our coverage of the Davis Cup, Serbia against Great Britain

:00:00.:00:13.

and you join us with Inglot serving for the match. Let's join John Lloyd

:00:14.:00:15.

and Andrew Castle. That will do it! That came off the

:00:16.:00:37.

throat of the racket. The sense that he needed to help his partner out

:00:38.:00:42.

here. In this point at 15- Love and so he went a cross, a breed crossed,

:00:43.:00:46.

but didn't use many of the strings on that shots but who cares?

:00:47.:01:00.

Krajinovic has just enough to make him play a difficult ball.

:01:01.:01:20.

That affected the ball toss a little bit.

:01:21.:01:41.

Jamie Murray had been lacking earlier on in this game with the

:01:42.:01:46.

throated volley, that is good fortune, right off the top of the

:01:47.:01:50.

racket. It is the break point suddenly. I don't know what anybody

:01:51.:01:51.

could do with that. Well done, two very good volleys

:01:52.:02:45.

therefrom Inglot, under a lot of pressure in this service game. He is

:02:46.:02:50.

feeling it and he tried to dig out to low volleys there and Jamie

:02:51.:02:55.

Murray was knocked about as well. Agreed second serve as well, deep in

:02:56.:02:59.

the box. Here is a match point to boot Great Britain in the driving

:03:00.:03:01.

seat in this Davis Cup tie. And, it is in. Oh, boy. I can't

:03:02.:03:29.

believe it, he thought that without, Inglot. He was putting his arms up.

:03:30.:03:36.

That dropped fast at the end. That with a piece of big-time believer

:03:37.:03:43.

Krajinovic. He was just about to pump his best, he thought it was

:03:44.:03:47.

match over. Now he has got the really compose himself. Good luck

:03:48.:03:51.

with that. He has called a let. Oh, by! He told

:03:52.:04:17.

them to be quiet and didn't do it. Leon Smith is applauding. The

:04:18.:04:23.

Serbian captain, he is having a word. That is outrageous. Of all the

:04:24.:04:30.

Davis Cup ties and all the calls and all the whistling, I actually think

:04:31.:04:37.

it was a good decision. There is no doubt, he told them, he gave them a

:04:38.:04:41.

warning, they whistled in the middle of the ball toss. He is aptly right.

:04:42.:04:52.

OK, fair enough. It was a pretty handy return and a nice little

:04:53.:04:56.

back-up army have volley. One of the biggest servers in the game has a

:04:57.:05:03.

first serve. The crowded field beat now. -- the crowd feel baited now.

:05:04.:05:18.

How about a time violation? Heated through that one in two. -- heated.

:05:19.:05:31.

Easy game for Inglot. That is admirable. Well done. So desperate

:05:32.:05:42.

to get his first win, it has anything else been thrown at him

:05:43.:05:48.

goals? anything else been thrown at him

:05:49.:05:57.

And that is that, to massive first serves! Inglot serves it out, a

:05:58.:06:05.

wonderful when, if first win for him at a Davis Cup. Jamie Murray is

:06:06.:06:10.

brilliant and you see why he is a former world number one, the world

:06:11.:06:14.

number five, Britain are in the driving seat away from home playing

:06:15.:06:19.

in this Davis Cup quarterfinal and after losing the second set on a

:06:20.:06:23.

tie-breaker, I have to say, that is very brave from both of those

:06:24.:06:28.

players. The presence of Andy Murray on the sideline, of course, the B1

:06:29.:06:32.

of the first to congratulate his team-mates. They will be looking

:06:33.:06:38.

forward to the potential semifinal in September yet but they are one

:06:39.:06:44.

big step closer to it. Superb doubles victory, well done to both,

:06:45.:06:48.

Inglot and Jamie Murray and the crowd as well who held their own

:06:49.:06:53.

against some mild Serbian intimidation there. So vastly

:06:54.:07:05.

experienced and unable to get the job done on this occasion. The

:07:06.:07:14.

relatively inexperienced Krajinovic. Two hours and 35mm, this is what the

:07:15.:07:17.

Davis Cup can be like. If antagonist atmosphere. Serbia I still in with a

:07:18.:07:30.

chance. -- a fantastic atmosphere. The two number one players will play

:07:31.:07:36.

tomorrow at a victory for Great Britain. Britain will be taken to

:07:37.:07:47.

the semifinal once again. It may yet come down to Tipsarevic against

:07:48.:07:51.

James Ward. Let's look at some of the numbers. Great performance,

:07:52.:08:04.

excellent doubles. Great Britain, 2-1. That got little tense at the

:08:05.:08:15.

end, doesn't it? How that dropped in, Inglot thought he had finally

:08:16.:08:20.

won the match and he hadn't, great composure at the end. To massive

:08:21.:08:24.

service and that was always going to be big thing frame that would get

:08:25.:08:27.

into the match. How much will that mean to Inglot, to hold his nerve

:08:28.:08:38.

and win that match? Great Britain weren't able to take. They had 11

:08:39.:08:43.

break point in the combined sets two and three and most of them on the

:08:44.:08:49.

court with Inglot returning. You don't see this often, a double fault

:08:50.:08:56.

who has been so reliable. We were 15-40 down in that one and they had

:08:57.:09:01.

to wear bandages really saved. The most experienced player on the

:09:02.:09:04.

court, you are backing him to come out. The double fault came out of

:09:05.:09:10.

nowhere. They held their nerve to take that set and this was key to

:09:11.:09:14.

get that early break serve in the fourth? Be needed that one. It just

:09:15.:09:19.

adds to combine well at that stage, they were searching for it. One

:09:20.:09:25.

would get a bit of rhythm going and then no one would drop off,

:09:26.:09:31.

particularly Inglot. What -- when he needed to, the team together and

:09:32.:09:35.

sometimes these matches, didn't play great that they don't need to. They

:09:36.:09:39.

had to get the job done. It is all right for should win this match and

:09:40.:09:43.

yes they should, it wasn't spectacular but they got the job

:09:44.:09:46.

done. Dominic Inglot will be thrilled, he has won his first day

:09:47.:09:50.

the cup. Visual minutes, we weren't sure how he would play but he wasn't

:09:51.:09:55.

so good in the first set but he came good. He had all those chances and

:09:56.:10:00.

that gave him is a much confidence, Krajinovic. He did find a bit of

:10:01.:10:05.

rhythm from the back and sometimes Jamie Murray and Inglot, they were

:10:06.:10:14.

looking to cross. That third set was so important particularly British

:10:15.:10:19.

point of view, they had loads of chances to beat to set - love up and

:10:20.:10:24.

if ended up having those chances in the third and not winning that said,

:10:25.:10:29.

it could have been very sticky. 11 break point in the second and third,

:10:30.:10:34.

the took one. It was going to be a regulation doubles win. They

:10:35.:10:38.

should've been up to set- love and this is what we expected and then

:10:39.:10:41.

the next thing they lose that and it was getting a bit dodgy therefore a

:10:42.:10:44.

time and I was getting a bit nervous, thinking this is starting

:10:45.:10:49.

to slip the other way and Jamie Murray was getting upset, it may be

:10:50.:10:52.

a problem with his vision or the Sunday something. They have to snap

:10:53.:10:56.

out of this, I thought and the dead and the class came through at the

:10:57.:11:00.

end. It is also a very different feel on that court. Jamie Murray

:11:01.:11:05.

with his brother Andy, on the other court, he has never missing returns.

:11:06.:11:09.

Every time there is a big point, there is a boggling in the Court all

:11:10.:11:13.

the time and today he knew what to expect, that Inglot would not be as

:11:14.:11:17.

consistent but it's just a different feel because Jamie Murray himself is

:11:18.:11:20.

having to make more returns so it's a different type of pressure. The

:11:21.:11:24.

combined well together in the moments. The came through and there

:11:25.:11:30.

was a lot of pressure on them. It's almost better to play against a

:11:31.:11:34.

better team because this is a 50-50 match, they were 80, 20 Billy to win

:11:35.:11:39.

this match, especially when the change that the partnership of the

:11:40.:11:43.

Serbian team. We may have the few minutes left but we can hear from

:11:44.:11:49.

rainy May and Dominic Inglot. Here are the victorious doubles pair

:11:50.:11:54.

alongside their captain Leon Smith. Jamie, Dom, congratulations, it was

:11:55.:11:58.

getting feisty towards the end there, Jamie? Not on our part. They

:11:59.:12:05.

felt a bit aggrieved to let Dom have another first serve at the end but

:12:06.:12:08.

it's the Davis Cup. The crowd was great the whole day. They were doing

:12:09.:12:13.

their best to turn it around for their team but we got through in the

:12:14.:12:16.

end and we're really happy to have a lead going Sunday. You're the man

:12:17.:12:22.

who serve it out and this is your first Davis Cup when free which must

:12:23.:12:26.

be very special feeling? You better believe! I mean, it's great to

:12:27.:12:33.

believe feel like you have finally the and put in a bit further team

:12:34.:12:38.

and serving it out was a little bit nerve wracking, but as I said, with

:12:39.:12:42.

the likes of Jamie Murray in there, you know when you might miss a third

:12:43.:12:46.

by a little bit he will help you out and heeded massively on this point.

:12:47.:12:50.

He deserves a lot of credit for making me feel good. You started

:12:51.:12:54.

very well as the pair but got very interesting when they won that

:12:55.:12:58.

second set on the tie-break. Beware that unlucky to win that set, we

:12:59.:13:02.

didn't return as well as they would have liked. Dom was serving

:13:03.:13:08.

incredibly well, I was serving pretty smart. It was just

:13:09.:13:14.

unfortunate we can capitalise at the end of the second set and beware

:13:15.:13:17.

that unlucky a couple of points but it felt like we stuck to our guns

:13:18.:13:22.

and kept getting the ball back. We had a good chance to win and prove

:13:23.:13:26.

that in the third and fourth sets with the breaks of serve that

:13:27.:13:30.

regard. They make a lot of noise, don't they, those 300 fans?

:13:31.:13:35.

Absolutely. At the beginning of yesterday, it relied than the rest

:13:36.:13:39.

of the guys here, however many they work. Credit to them because the

:13:40.:13:42.

Serbians are knowing for being a feisty crowd. They make it really

:13:43.:13:47.

massive, a great experience for us and keeping it neutral in a venue

:13:48.:13:51.

and that makes a big difference. The rather the legends and we love them.

:13:52.:13:56.

Leon, how was that for you on the team bench? You live and breathe

:13:57.:13:59.

everything got shot and every single rally. Not as stressful as other

:14:00.:14:03.

recent doubles experiences? Rae I don't know about that. Only joking.

:14:04.:14:11.

As Jamie said earlier, they were holding serve really efficiently,

:14:12.:14:15.

very easily. They had a tonne of chances in the second set on break

:14:16.:14:24.

point. Didn't panic. It's great to have Dom having his first Davis Cup

:14:25.:14:29.

victory, Jamie, or Bisley, is very experienced now and in big matches

:14:30.:14:33.

like that, you can rely upon him to come out and keep everything

:14:34.:14:37.

together when it really counts. Dom, with his serve, it was great to have

:14:38.:14:41.

him with that first serve towards the end really helped as well. That

:14:42.:14:46.

is the big weapon that helps us. It was great to hear from all of them

:14:47.:14:49.

out in Belgrade and thank you to Jamie and to John. We will be back

:14:50.:14:57.

on air at 145 on BBC One the CF Kyle Edmund can seal victory for Great
