The Indo-Swiss pair extended their winning streak to 33 by demolishing unseeded Russian-Italian pair of Svetlana Kuznetsova and Roberta Vinci 6-1, 6-3 in a match that lasted for one hour and 20 minutes.

Mirza and Hingis, who claimed their 11th straight WTA title at the Sydney International, will now play against German-American pair of Anna-Lena Groenefeld and Coco Vandeweghe for the semi-final berth.
