Bingham 6-6 Jones at the mid-session interval.

At some point, one of the players in these semi-finals has to start running away with their match.

Second time I've heard Neil Robertson in the commentary box and he doesn't seem cut out for it. Sounds bored and jealous.

Little bit dour tonally...could be nerves. It takes quite a while to find your TV voice/personality. Lineker took a few years before he was totally at ease....it's not as easy as it looks.

Maybe.

I'm not a fan of his in general though, find him quite up himself. Used to love watching him play but over the last few years he's become one of the more boring players to watch by taking half an hour over every shot even the sitters that we could all pot.

I guess not because Bingham and Jones have ended their second session at eight a piece, just like Wilson and Gilbert.

At the mid-session interval, we finally have a bit of space between the two players as Kyren Wilson wins the 20th frame to lead Dave Gilbert 11-9.

Kyren doubled his advantage from a two frame lead to four frames up by the end of the night.

Session finished with Wilson leading 14-10.

In the final frame before the mid-session interval, Jak Jones has opened up a two frame lead for himself for the first time in the match.

11-9.

Session has ended with Jones holding a three frame lead before they finish up tonight. It's also finished a frame earlier than scheduled due to time constraints.

13-10.

Kyren Wilson is our first finalist in this years World Championship.

A 17-11 victory over Dave Gilbert.

Not surprised to see Wilson get through. He isn't a great watch, monotonous metronomic cuing. Gilbert sagging a bit. Been through the qualifiers, so battling at it for 4/5 weeks. Qualifying does sharpen up your game coming into it but fatigue also plays a part.

Two other players Jones and Bingham had to qualify so Wilson is big favourite to take the title.
