Fourth seeds Leander Paes and Lukas Dlouhy crashed out of the Miami Masters with a shocking straight-set defeat at the hands of the unseeded Czech-Slovak pair of Frantisek Cermak and Michal Mertinak in the men's doubles second round.
The Indo-Czech combine went down 3-6, 3-6 in the just over an hour long contest. In a match that was surprisingly lop-sided, the fourth seeds were left to rue missed opportunities, frittering away three break points in the first set itself. Cermak and Mertinak broke Paes and Dlouhy twice before going 1-0 up.
