British-American pair Joe Salisbury and Rajeev Ram cruised into the second round of the men's doubles at Wimbledon with a convincing straight-set win.

The third seeds beat Casper Ruud of Norway and American William Blumberg 7-5 6-4 on court 11.

Salisbury and Ram have won four Grand Slams together - including the past three US Open titles - but have never advanced beyond the semi-finals of the men's doubles at SW19.

There are 15 doubles matches involving British players on day four including wildcards Andy and Jamie Murray's tie with Australians Rinky Hijikata and John Peers which will take place last on Centre Court.

Andy Murray, 37, is playing at the Championships for the final time before retiring later this year.

In the men's draw, defending champions Neal Skupski and Wesley Koolhof are not paired together this year.

Instead, Briton Skupski joins Michael Venus of New Zealand and will take on Austrians Alexander Erler and Lucas Miedler later on court five.

Koolhof of the Netherlands partners Croat Nikola Mektic and faces Argentine duo Mariano Navone and Federico Coria.

In the women's draw, Briton Olivia Nicholls and Slovak Tereza Mihalikova upset sixth seeded Brazilian-Dutch duo Demi Schuurs and Luisa Stefani 6-4 6-0.

But Britons Tara Moore and Sarah Beth Grey were beaten 6-1 6-2 by third seeds Nicole Melichar-Martinez and Ellen Perez of America and Australia respectively.
