There’s a big grin on Dan Evans’ face as he skips over to Henry Searle and high fives him after his team-mate dug out an excellent winner to help the Brits once again level the second set.

We’re getting the full playbook of Dan Evans chants between points, with ‘Let’s go Evans, let’s go’ following ‘We love you Evans, we do!’ a little earlier.

‘Come on!’ Evans yells at Searle in encouragement as his team-mate chases down a drop shot to save the first of three break points.

But Evans slices wide on the third of them, leaving him potentially just one game from retirement.

"Come on!" yells Naomi Osaka after she smashes home an overhead on her third break point. That's the most animated she's been all match.

Anastasia Gasanova wasn't best pleased about the warning for a time violation just before that point.

Uh oh. Hugo Nys and Edouard Roger-Vasselin earn three break points following a return winner.

Dan Evans and Henry Searle save the first two, but they can't rescue the third as Evans drifts a backhand wide.

Evans' career is hanging by a thread with Nys and Roger-Vasselin set to serve for the match.

Dan Evans is the first to admit he is not everybody's cup of tea.

Evans' outspoken nature has tended to annoy those in positions of power, but there is no doubt he appeals to the common fan - especially those from his part of the world.

Like Evans, these four lads - George Rayson, Liam Ritchie, Sam Waters, Tom Ritchie - hail from Solihull and are wearing custom-designed T-shirts bearing a photo of Evans after he won the biggest title of his career in Washington in 2023.

"We wanted to say thanks for the career - he's had some brilliant moments," says Tom.

"He's a unique tennis player and increased my enthusiasm for tennis."

The gang camped over in the Wimbledon Queue from 11pm last night to see what might be the final match of Evans' career.

However, it wasn't early enough to get a seat on court 15 and instead they're stood on their tip-toes to peer over the heads in front.

George adds: "How busy it is here - the queues outside the court - show how popular he is. He's really down to earth and relatable. That's why we love him."

Naomi Osaka is upping the pressure on Anastasia Gasanova, with the Russian having to save a couple of break points.

She can't stop a third though as Osaka opens up an opportunity for an overhead smash, before putting it away to secure the break.

Osaka has one foot in the third round.

Hopefully it is not an injury that Gasanova has got but she has been clutching at that area, I wonder if it is a stitch maybe?

I wonder if physically she is starting to feel it. Remember, she has won four matches to get to this stage.

The BBC weather forecast suggests it'll be a dry day at Wimbledon today, with a high temperature of about 25C.

Perfect conditions for tennis.

The point of consideration with Osaka's time out of the game, that also adds to the longevity of her game too, the wear and tear on her body, so there is a positive to that too.

She could be in the game for another seven or eight years, if she wants to.

For a lot of players out of the game it has led to a positive and a successful return too. It might give players a different outlook on the game.

After losing the first set 6-2 against Hugo Nys and Edouard Roger-Vasselin, Dan Evans and Henry Searle have fended off a couple of break points at the start of the second.

The crowd on court 15 are doing their best to encourage the British pair.

Evans is playing in his final ever tournament after announcing last month he would be retiring after Wimbledon.

Tough opening set for Dan Evans and Henry Searle, as the morning sunshine is replaced by ominous grey clouds.

The British pair are struggling to get a foothold in this match, despite the crowd willing them on.

A group of friends wearing ‘Thanks Dan’ T-shirts have been chanting to raise their spirits, and Evans took the time to respond in between points.

Can they respond in set two?

Naomi Osaka is a four-time major winner but she's never really cracked the grass-courts of Wimbledon. It's the only Slam where she hasn't gone past the third round.

But she's well on her way to round three again after a dominant first set against Anastasia Gasanova. It feels like the former world number one could still go up another gear if she needs to.

Naomi Osaka earns two set points and seals it with an ace down the middle.

The Japanese 14th seed has looked impressive on court two this morning.

The last time I was on the live text for Dan Evans he was involved in the longest match in US Open history, at five hours and 35 minutes.

Surely we won't see anything like that today...

At the moment he's still a break down alongside fellow Briton Henry Searle to Hugo Nys and Edouard Roger-Vasselin in the first set.

I always feel like there is more discipline in Osaka's game now.

Hitting the big spots on return, going across her body, I love to see that, and more torque on her spin shots too.

It is really positive.

Anastasia Gasanova is finding her feet in the first set now as she outplays Naomi Osaka in a rally on her way to a hold to 15.

The Russian's second-round appearance at Wimbledon marks her best ever run at a Grand Slam.

There are only about three rows of seats around the smaller outside courts, which means there's no shortage of fans gathered around any gaps.

Plenty more are watching from above through windows on Centre Court and Court One.

It's been a tough start for Dan Evans and Henry Searle, already a break down at 3-1 in the opening set.

We've had a bit of a delay here because what sounds like an alarm from a nearby building started going off. Without any apparent quick fix, play has resumed with the noise continuing.

Can the Brits use that break as a reset? Hopefully someone can reset that alarm soon, too...

Naomi Osaka toned down her outfit slightly for her second-round tie, removing some of the skirts that flowed under her kimono.

The former world number one left the locker rooms and made the five-minute walk to Court Two with an entourage around her.

It didn’t take long for fans to notice and start racing after her, cameras at the ready.
