Australian Open 2025: Balaji-Varela pair ousted after second-round loss to Borges-Cabral

The Hindu  

India’s N Sriram Balaji and his Mexican partner Miguel Angel Reyes-Varela bowed out of the Australian Open men’s doubles after a second-round loss to the Portuguese pair of Nuno Borges and Francisco Cabral here on Saturday. The first set was a gripping affair that lasted 56 minutes, with neither pair able to break serve as it went into a tiebreaker, where Borges and Cabral held their composure under pressure to go one set up. With powerful serves, precise winners, and crucial breakpoints, the Indo-Mexican duo maintained control throughout the second set and sealed it with an ace and a forehand winner to bring the match on level terms. Borges and Cabral then displayed urgency with a powerful serve and the former’s forehand winners to earn a break in the ninth game and eliminate their rivals.
