Andy Murray reached the Australian Open quarter-finals for a third year running after Mikhail Kukushkin retired through injury while trailing 6-1 6-1 1-0.

The effects of two five-set matches in rounds two and three took their toll on Kukushkin, who pulled out with a left hip flexor problem after 49 minutes.

"It was hot on the court and it is good for me that I have conserved energy," said British number one Murray.

The fourth seed will play Kei Nishikori after he stunned Jo-Wilfried Tsonga.
