It will not worry Andy Murray one iota that his victory over Tomas Berdych on Friday night may have lacked the drama or controversy that accompanied their Australian Open semi-final in January. Instead the world No 4 – next week to be world No 3 – was all business as he produced a performance of clinical excellence to take down the powerful Czech 6-4 6-4 in an hour and 42 minutes. He is through to Sunday's final of the Miami Open where the Scot will face his growing nemesis, Novak Djokovic after he dispatched John Isner in straight sets.

The Czech Republic star could not contend with Murray's selection of shot making in Florida . It will be Murray’s first Masters level final since he won the title in what is his home from home two years ago. That fact backs up the belief that he is returning to the kind of form last seen from him in the first half of 2013, which led to him winning the Wimbledon title. Since then there has been back surgery, a new coach in Amelie Mauresmo and a revamped support team and all manner of setbacks. But a Grand Slam final, making the last four of Indian Wells and now the final here tells the story of his improvement this season. Occasionally there have been periods of wandering concentration in the past week but his mind was very focussed. It may have helped that ex assistant coach Dani Vallverdu was sitting in Berdych’s corner accompanied by ex-fitness coach Jez Green, who is now also working with the Czech. But there was none of the highly-charged atmosphere of that night in Melbourne. Kim Sears, who he is marrying next week, kept a much lower profile this time, hidden beneath the wide-peaked straw hat protecting her from the fierce Florida sun.

Murray and his close friend Vallverdu have now regained the equilibrium in their relationship, but the Scot admitted afterwards that there are still extraneous factors with him playing Berdych, who he does not especially like. “It was different from then (Melbourne) for sure, but it was still not easy even if it appears that way,” he said. “It’s still a bit tricky and not a comfortable situation. I’m quite pleased with the way I have handled the emotions in both these matches.” Murray has played more matches on this Crandon Park court than any other outside Wimbledon’s Centre Court and the Rod Laver Arena, and knows what to expect in conditions that are usually heavy and humid with a brisk breeze.

But when I've played him on some of the quicker surfaces, I feel like I've been able to hit through the court and make him move a lot. “It’s been a long five or six weeks for me so I wanted to try and conserve as much energy as I can. I obviously have some days off next week to relax.” Murray had a fairly clear game plan, taking some speed off his first serve to increase its percentage and not allow Berdych too many looks at his more vulnerable second delivery. He also sought to exploit the 6’ 5” Czech’s slightly cumbersome movement and prevent him from hitting too many of the bazooka forehands that had helped the Czech forge a 6-5 record in their previous encounters.

Murray, now sure to overtake Rafael Nadal in the rankings to close on Roger Federer at two, took advantage of two wobbly Berdych service games at the start of each set, but was then unable to hold his serve before breaking again. The only whiff of controversy came after four games of the match when Berdych, whose whingeing makes Murray appear positively laidback, complained about the state of the balls. It did not impress his opponent. At this time of year it might be appropriate to describe him as Doubting Tomas and Murray was in such purposeful mood, and serving so consistently, that he comfortably held onto his lead in both sets.
