The action is at it's halfway point in PDC Home Tour Group 20 with victories so far for Joe Cullen, John Michael and Ryan Murray.

Cullen is the favourite to get through tonight's group but his first result could have been so much different. He was facing Ryan Murray and Cullen was both 2-0 and 4-2 up but Murray ended up coming back to force a decider.

Despite that though he didn't capitalise and missed two match darts which handed 'The Rockstar' the first two points of the night.

Jermaine Wattimena was a replacement for Jeffrey de Zwaan and his night isn't going too well so far. He lost his first game to John Michael in a 5-2 defeat with 'The Deadly Rose' averaging 95.2 with 5/8 on the doubles en route.

Ryan Murray though dealt John Michael a blow and as a result it is still very much open after the Scot saw him off in a 5-3 win with a 121 on the bull to complete it.

Every evening, the four players will each face off; with each match being the best of nine legs. This group stage lasts 32 days with that amount of players set to reach the next round to play it out from there to crown a winner.
