'He (Dobey) wasn't feeling a million dollars in his opening match against Zong.

I liked his interview, 'I don't want a quarter-final', 'I don't want a semi-final', 'I'm here to win it, I want to be world champion'.

Good luck to the lad because he's playing some tremendous stuff. Big scorer, but he is against the quirky, difficult to play, Andrew Gilding, Goldfinger. Who stands to the left, he moves across, he's so process-driven.

Chris has had problems with him before, 11 times they've played each other, it's 6-5 in the head-to-head. But Dobey has won the last three, had a belter of a match a few months ago where Dobey won the game 6-2, averaged 110, and in defeat Gilding lost with 101.

I'm going for a Dobey win and the most 180s.'

'Nitin Kumar comes back on Saturday night and wasn't he good.

He'd only previously won one set of darts (at the World Championship) before he played Richard Veenstra in the first round.

Nine from 12 on the doubles, he was ridiculously good on the outer ring.

But he is playing the people's champion in Stephen Bunting.

Stephen Bunting himself had his own story to tell, in the first set he came out, he was amazing, and ended up going the full five sets (against Sebastian Bialecki).

But Bunting found a way to win and sometimes you need that in a competition. He'll feel better for it and I think he's ready to do a one-way traffic job on Nitin Kumar.

He's (Kumar) had his moment, I think Bunting will relish that he's playing on a Saturday night. I expect him to win the game, hit the most 180s and have the highest finish.'
