In the summit clash, they will take on Ekaterina Makarova and Elena Vesnina, whom they had defeated in the final of the BNP Paribas Open two weeks ago.
The No 2-seeded Makarova and Vesnina beat No 9 seeds Andrea Hlavackova and Lucie Hradecka 6-4, 6-2. Asked what they would have to do to beat Makarova and Vesnina again, Sania said: &ldquo;The same as we did last week! We just have to keep focused and fight for every point. I keep saying this &mdash; names don&rsquo;t win you matches, neither does any result. Every day is a different day,&rdquo; she said.
&ldquo;Now we know we can definitely beat the best, because they&rsquo;re champions too. We&rsquo;re still learning to play with each other, so it&rsquo;s good to play against a tough team like that,&rdquo; Mirza said after the match.
Talking about the match, the Swiss great said,&rdquo;It was a great match. I&rsquo;d never played this team before, and I know it was a good test for us in our second tournament together &mdash; it&rsquo;s nice to get a tough team like that to play against.&rdquo;
