They held onto their serve and won a late break in the 11th game to win the first set.
In the second, Bopanna and Ebden made a good start but against the run of the play, Pel and Stalder broke the Indian's serve in the 10th game to win the second set and took the match into the decider. The start of the third set was delayed because of rain. Things went with serve before Bopanna and Ebden saved three match points to take the contest into the 10-point tie-breaker
Pel and Stalder raced to a 3-1 lead in the tie-breaker. But Bopanna's superb backhand shots and Ebden's accuracy helped the Indo-Australian pair win seven consecutive points and eventually use their experience to close the match in their favour. Bopanna and Ebden will next take on the Dutch duo of Bart Stevens and Tallon Griekspoor in the quarter-finals.&nbsp;
