World number one Novak Djokovic will face Kei Nishikori in the Miami Open final on Sunday. This will be the ninth meeting between the pair, with Djokovic leading with six wins. The Serb is attempting to win the title for a record equalling sixth time in what is his seventh Miami final. Here’s what he has to say about playing the Japanese player.
