After singles, Sania Mirza’s doubles campaign at the $ 600,000 Aegon International was also cut short in the first round itself.

Sania and her Taiepi partner Chia-Jung Chuang lost their first round match 5-7, 4-6 to fourth seeded Australian pair of Samantha Stosur and Rennae Stubbs.

Sania had withdrawn from the singles event after suffering a hip-strain.
