Andy Murray produced another scarcely-believable display to fight back from two sets down to beat Thanasi Kokkinakis in an epic Australian Open match finishing at 04:05 local time.

In one of the latest finishes in tennis history, Murray won 4-6, 6-7, 7-6, 6-3, 7-5 on a night of gruelling physical and mental endurance.

The second-round match started at 10:20 pm local time and lasted 5 hours and 45 minutes.

It was the longest contest in 35-year-old Murray's eventful career.

The match is the second latest finish in Australian Open history after a 2008 third-round match between Lleyton Hewitt and Marcos Baghdatis that ended at 04:34.

The 3-time grand slam winner will face 24th seed Roberto Bautista Agut for a place in the 4th round.
