File Picture[/caption] Internet Desk : Sania Mirza and her doubles partner Barbora Strycova from Czech Republic continued their red hot form against Hao-Ching Chan and Yung-Jan Chan to reach the women’s doubles final at the Wuhan Open on Friday. The Indo-Czech pair claimed a 6-4, 3-6, 10-7 win over the Chan sisters from Chinese Taipei in a great contest that went for one hour and 24 minutes. In the final, they will face the threatening pair of recent US Open champions Lucie Safarova and Bethanie Mattek-Sands. Sania and Strycova joined as partners  at the Cincinnati Open for the first time after splitting with Swiss star Martina Hingis last month. They defeated Martina Hingis and CoCo Vandeweghe in the final to win the Cincinnati Open. However, they were knocked out of the US Open, the fourth and final major of the season, after losing in the quarter-finals.
