Indian tennis ace Sania Mirza and her Swiss partner Martina Hingis continued their imperious form as they romp into the quarterfinals of the Australian Open women's double event on Monday.

The Indo-Swiss pair extended their winning streak to 33 by demolishing unseeded Russian-Italian pair of Svetlana Kuznetsova and Roberta Vinci 6-1, 6-3 in a match that lasted for one hour and 20 minutes.

Mirza and Hingis, who claimed their 11th straight WTA title at the Sydney International, will now play against German-American pair of Anna-Lena Groenefeld and Coco Vandeweghe for the semi-final berth.
