GB struck back to win the third doubles round 2-1, then earned another point in the floating doubles round. The remaining match in that round has been pegged down in game 2, with Cherry & Bidencope to play but needing to hit a long shot to get in.
Each side is of course hoping to win at least four of tomorrow’s six singles matches and thereby win the test before the remaining doubles match resumes.
