Indian tennis ace Sania Mirza and her doubles partner Barbora Strycova of the Czech Republic eased into the second round of the BNP Paribas Open after defeating German-Latvian duo of Julia Goerges and Jelena Ostapenko 6-3, 6-4 here. The fourth seeded Indo-Czech pair consumed just over an hour and 15 minutes after staving off four of eight possible break points from their opponents on Thursday night. Sania and Strycova will now play Italy's Sara Errani and Alicja Rosolka of Poland.
