According to media reports, Sania Mirza and Martina Hingis stormed into the final of the Stuttgart Open on Saturday, beating the unseeded duo of Sabine Lisicki and Lucie Safarova in straight sets.

Sania and Hingis won the match 6-4, 7-5 to head into yet another final. They face Caroline Garcia and Kristina Mladenovic in the final on Sunday.

In the first set, there were a total of seven service breaks in the 10 games played as both parties looked happy to surrender serve. But eventually, Sania-Hingis held their nerve more often than once, saving 5 of the 8 break points they faced, while breaking the opponents serve 4 times in 6 attempts.

The second set was also decided on fine margins. Lisicki-Safarova put in a much better showing with their serves. The Czech-German pair won 68% of their first serve points, but despite their mightiest of efforts, they couldn't stop the Indo-Swiss pair from breaking their serve thrice to wrap up the match and storm into the final.
