In the second round they face the Italian team of Simone Bolelli and Fabio Fognini.
In the women's doubles, Mirza and her Chinese partner Shuai Peng overcame the challenge of Croatian team of Petra Martic and Donna Vekic in the opening round. It took the Indo-Chinese pair just 55 minutes to cross the first hurdle.
Mirza and Peng broke their rivals four times but also dropped their serve once in the match.
They next face Slovakia's Jana Cepelova and Magdalena Rybarikova.
