Murray books place in Miami final

Andy Murray has fought back from a set down to beat Richard Gasquet and make it through to the Miami Masters final.

The British second seed will now face third seed David Ferrer as he bids to win his second title of the year.

Both players dropped serve twice each in a scrappy opening set, but Frenchman Gasquet came out on top 7-3 in the tie-break.

While the first set was close, Murray dominated in the second as he took it 6-1 against his waning opponent.

The pair exchanged breaks at the start of the third before the world number three broke twice more on his way to closing out the contest 6-2.

Murray will move up to second place in the world rankings if he wins the tournament in Florida.
