Sania Mirza and Barbora Strycova beat Yung-jan Chan and Hao-Ching Chan 6-4, 3-6, 10-7

14:01 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

Sania Mirza arches a beautiful shot over to take a 9-7 lead and now Strycova sends in one of her own. And that's the match! 

13:57 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

We're at 65 in the decider as Mirza sends a stunning forehand hurtling towards the Chan/Chan pair.

13:49 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

And they're at one set all! Chan and Chan absolutely revelled in that point. A deserved set win. Time for the decider!

13:47 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

Sania Mirza and Barbora Strycova stave off the first set point.

13:45 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

And... that was quick! We should have a decider very soon as Chan and Chan break to lead 5-3. They'll now serve for the second set.

13:40 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

Chan/Chan lead second set 4-3

13:40 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

A little loose on the forehand from Hao-Ching Chan, and that's helped Mirza and Strycova inch a little bit closer! 

13:37 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

The second set appears to be with the Chans, now. They lead 4-2 and are currently on serve in the second. It's looking more and more like we're heading to a decider.

13:24 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

Chan/Chan lead 3 - 0 in the second.

13:24 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

Some really quick reflexes from Chan and Chan there! All four players are firmly at the net and Sania sends a beautiful volley towards her rivals - but Hao-Ching Chan sends a forehand across the court.

13:22 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

After holding their first service game in set 2, Chan and Chan break to lead 2-0

13:21 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

It's now time to serve for the set - and Mirza and Strycova have done just that! They take the first set 6-4. 

13:08 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

Brilliant attacking tennis from both. Hao-Ching Chan has a bit of a one-on-one rally with Strycova - and then Mirza joins the party, and sends a blazing forehand to the other end. A failed return gives the Indo-Czech side the break! 

13:07 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

Seven straight breaks of serve. Let that sink in. It's been seven games since either team held serve here.

13:05 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

And the Chans break back, again! It's been a while since someone held a service game, now.

13:02 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

They're leading their rivals by a break, but Barbora Strycova double faults in Game 9, netting the ball. 

13:01 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

There's some aggressive tennis on both sides of the net today, and everyone is trying some new shots. Hao-ching Chan's forehand looks incredibly powerful - but Sania looks like a woman on a mission, too.

12:50 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

The Chinese Taipei pair break back! It's certainly not a one-sided match here... 2-2! 

12:48 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

That gives Mirza and Strycova an early break of serve as they lead 2-1

12:47 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

That was a brilliant rally between the two teams - and especially great stuff from Sania Mirza there! A run-up to the net here, a smash from the far end there, and the ball is shooting across all ends of the court! 

12:43 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

And they hold to love! A super-quick service hold for Mirza and Strycova to equalize.

12:40 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

Chan-Chan hold 1-0

12:40 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

Mirza and Strycova hit with a bang and even take the opening game to break point! Chan and Chan smash some beautiful forehands towards them,though, and Mirza, guarding the baseline, nets it. 

12:37 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

Chan and Chan will open to serve!

12:33 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

The two have also won the title at the Japanese Toray Pan Pacific Open - and are now playing their fifth tournament together as doubles partners.

12:31 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

Mirza now holds the World No. 1 ranking alone after winning the Western and Southern Open title with her Czech partner.

12:31 (GMT)30 SEP 2016

Mirza and Strycova came together following the Indian's split from Swiss Miss Martina Hingis.
