Sania Mirza and her Czech partner Barbora Strycova continued their good form since crashing out of the US Open quarter-final, as they moved a step closer to clinching their third title since joining hands a couple of months ago. Mirza and Strycova dispatched Hungarian Timea Babis and Kazakhstan ace Yaroslava Shvedova 6-3, 7-6(5) in straight sets on Friday to move to the semi-finals of the Wuhan Open in China.
