British number three Dan Evans says that he is excited to march on in the Australian Open after beating seventh seed Marin Cilic in the second round.

British number three Dan Evans has spoken of his joy after ousting seventh seed Marin Cilic to reach the third round of the Australian Open.

The Birmingham-born player, who is ranked 51st in the world, came from a set down to earn a 3-6 7-5 6-3 6-3 triumph - his biggest career win.

"To come through in the last match point was pleasing for me. I struggled with the shade on the court and his pace on the ball was coming through pretty quick, but when the sun went down I got into the match," he told reporters.

"All the Aussie boys said this court can get quite loud. After the first set there wasn't much to sing about. But I'm looking forward to Friday."

The 26-year-old will face either Bernard Tomic or Victor Estrella Burgos in the next round.
