As per the drawsheet of this tournament on the wta site sania and her partner defeated Petra Martic and Heather Watson in R1
6-3,6-4 and they do not seem to have had a bye in the first round. Correct me if i am referring something wrong.

Other hand Goerges and Zahlavova Strycova had 5 break points and they converted 3 to win this set ... In the second set our pair had 4 break points and converted 2 ... Our pair failed to saved one break point but one break advantage was enough for taking this quarter-final in match tie-break ...

Re: Sania Mirza Tournaments 2012
In the first set both pairs traded 5 breaks but crucial break taken by Makarova and Vesnina in 12th game to win this set ... Same story repeated in the second set ... Again both pairs traded 5 breaks and crucial break taken by Makarova and Vesnina in 12th game to win the match.
Still this was a good result for Sania considering her last few months performance on WTA tour.
