New Delhi: Defending champions Sania Mirza and Martina Hingis registered a comfortable straight sets win over Japanese pair of Eri Hozumi and Miyu Kato to enter the third round of women's doubles at Wimbledon on Sunday.

The top-seeds took just 54 minutes in their 6-3, 6-1 win at All England Club's Court No. 3. Indo-Swiss were clinical in their approach and wrapped up the second round clash in 52 minutes on Court No. 3.
