The unseeded Indo-American duo overcame their opponents 6-4, 2-6, 10-7 in a tight contest that lasted for an hour and 32 minutes.

The title, Mirza’s 17th (16 doubles championships and one singles title), comes close on the heels of the Brisbane International title the Indian ace and Mattek-Sands had won just last month.
