Marina Erakovic's women's doubles semi-final will go into a second day after play was suspended due to bad light this morning.

Erakovic and her Thai partner Tamarine Tanasugarn were level with Sam Stosur and Sabine Lisicki at five-all in the deciding third set.

Stosur and Lisicki took the first set 6-3 before Erakovic and Tanasugarn fought back to take the second 6-4.

The women's semi-final was scheduled for centre court following Rafael Nadal's match against Andy Murray, and therefore light would not have be an issue, but in a late shuffle the Kiwi's doubles semi was moved out to court 12.
