She needs to find a regular partner for next year. Playing with random partners won't get you anywhere.

Good to see her win a round in a WTA tournament. I think it’s the third such win for her this year.

Yes, a seemingly paltry US$910, but also 60 points that take her to 144 in the women's doubles rankings. Each win at the WTA tour level helps to build confidence and is therefore worthwhile.
And beating Barthel (23rd in singles, 63 in doubles) and Vekic (#45 in singles) has to be a shot in the arm for Prarthana's fledgling pro doubles career.

Actually it moves her up to 128 in the women's doubles rankings (close to her career-high of 125).

I see her in the Hobart Main draw with Kaitlyn Christian but they have a tough match drawing the 4th seeds.
