Andy Murray withdraws from Swiss Indoors through injury

The second-seeded Andy Murray has withdrawn from the Swiss Indoors before his first-round match because of a right gluteal strain. The Scot arrived in Basel on a career-best 15-match winning streak. Since losing in the US Open semi-finals he has won three successive titles in three weeks in Bangkok, Tokyo and Shanghai. Murray accepted a wild card to play in Basel for the first time since 2005, and was scheduled to meet Robin Haase of the Netherlands. But following the injury Britain's No1 was replaced in the draw by Swiss lucky loser Marco Chiudinelli.
