The Scot will square up against Andrey Rublev in the final of the three-day event after defeating Rafael Nadal 6-3 7-5 in the Spaniard’s comeback match on Friday.

Murray also overcame fellow Brit Dan Evans 6-3 6-2 on Thursday in the exhibition tournament as he continues his preparation for the first Grand Slam of the season, the Australian Open, which starts on January 17.

Ahead of facing world number Rublev, the current world number five, Murray said: "It's another chance to play against a top player. He hits a huge ball from the back of the court so will certainly test my movement out"

Rublev secured his place in the final with a 7-6 (7-5) 3-6 6-4 victory over Denis Shapovalov.
