Already through to semifinals, Rohan Bopanna and Florin Mergea finished second in Ashe/Smith Group after suffering defeat against Italian pair of Fabio Fognini and Simone Bolleli in their last Group match, here on Thursday.

They trailed 0-3 in the Super Tie breaker and that cushion stayed with the Italians, who closed the match comfortably in their favour to record their third win a row.

Fognini and Bolleli finished as Group toppers.Ironically, Bopanna and Mergea won 56 points, six more than their rivals yet ended up on the losing side.
