Selby starts final fightback

Mark Selby launched a stunning comeback with a third session whitewash to trail John Higgins 12-10 and revive hopes of winning his first 888.com World Championship title at the Crucible Theatre.

Selby looked as if he faced mission impossible when he trailed 12-4 overnight in the best of 35 encounter – a deficit from which no-one has recovered to win in the history of the tournament.
