India’s Saketh Myneni and Sasikumar Mukund opened their campaign at the Tata Open Maharashtra with a resounding 6-3, 6-4 win over compatriots Divij Sharan and Yuki Bhambri in the doubles opening round match here on Wednesday.

Myneni and Sasikumar were awarded a main draw entry after the pair of Denis Novak and Joao Sousa pulled out with the former suffering a thigh injury. Teaming up for the first time, Myneni and Sasikumar pair looked in great touch as they pocketed the first set comfortably. 

However, Divij and Bhambri regrouped quickly in the second set to take the lead, but Myneni and Sasikumar did not let the momentum slip by securing successive points which put them 5-4 ahead and went on to bag the match comfortably in straight sets.
