World no 1 Novak Djokovic is back in action after breezing through second round against Lukas Rosol.  Where he got victory just losing only one game.  Now he will play against Samdev Devarman.  This is their first meeting of the career.  Samdev Devarman reached in 3rd round by beating Roger Vassiline when he was a set down.  He got victory by 4-6 6-4 7-5.  Samdev is an Indian but he is resident in America.  His highest ranking was no 62 in 2010.  Djokovic never lose in third round of Miami masters.  Also he is riding on 13 match winning streak at this tournament.  And tennis world is expecting that he will extend this streak in this match.  Samdev best record here was in 2010 when he reached in 4th round but was lost by Nadal.  Now he has to face another gruelling test against the man to beat since last two years.

David Ferrer is most advantageous man so far in the tournament due to two reasons.  No 1 is that he reached in this round without lifting a racket.  The no 2 reason is that his draw is open now because of del Potro's exit in the 2nd round.  Now his way to the semi final is looking very clear.  His 3rd round opponent is Fobio Fognini.  Ferrer is leading head to head by 5-0 against him.  And the same result is expected in this match.  Ferrer is more fresh because of last round walk over.  Fognini has 18-31 record in tournaments of masters 1000 level.  Ferrer is little beast of tennis, he is little tennis machine.  He work very hard for each point.  He wins the match by exhausting the other player.  The main issue for Fognini to beat Ferrer is to maintain the stamina from start to the end of the match.  Otherwise Ferrer will cruise.

In the other match on day session.  Del Potro was stunned by Kamke in a rain inturrupted match.  This was a huge upset of the tournament.  After becoming runner up at Indian Wells he was favourite to win this tournament.  But in the game of tennis anything can happen.  And just the same thing was happened in this match.  In the first set Del Potro showed good game and with a break of serve he lead the set by 5-3.  But he lost his concentration when he was serving for the set.  So that set went into the tie break.  In which he was still leading a mini break of serve.  But he could not close out set in his favour.  And Kamke won that set by 7-6(7-5).  This was the beginning of end of del Potro.  He struggled a lot in the second set.  Kamke broke Del Potro twice and closed the match by 7-6 6-1.  In the match del Potro only managed to convert 1 out of 6 break points and he could save just two out of  5 break points that he faced.  That was key to success for Kamke.  This was Kamke's only second victory at Masters 1000 level tornament.  So that was shocking for tennis world.
