12:36 pm on 29 January 2010

Fourth seed Andy Murray will hold Britain's grand slam tennis hopes in his hands on Sunday after booking a place in the Australian Open final with a four-set win over Croatia's Marin Cilic

Murray came from a set down to overcome the 14th seed 3-6 6-4 6-4 6-2 and reach just his second grand slam final.

It's been 74 years since a British man won a grand slam singles title, and Murray says he's going to make the most of his opportunity to change that at Melbourne Park come Sunday.

Murray will face either the world number one Roger Federer or France's Jo-Wilfried Tsonga who square off in tonight's second semi-final.
