Glasgow's Jamie Baker faces Australian teenager Krishananth Balakrishnan in his opening match in the ITF Futures event in Port Pirie, Australia.

Baker, who won last week's Futures event in Adelaide, is seeded sixth for the event and is hoping to finish his comeback tour on a high.

If he gets through he will face another Australian Mark McCook for a place in the last eight.

It is Baker's final tournament in Australia before he returns home later this month after a successful comeback.
