A doubles title continued to elude Mahesh Bhupathi and Max Mirnyi as they lost the Valencia Open final to British brothers Andy and Jamie Murray in Valencia.
The third seeded Indo-Belarusian pair lost the summit clash 6-7 (8), 7-5, 7-10 to the wild card pair.
It's for the fourth time in the season that Bhupathi and Mirnyi have lost a title clash.
They ended runners-up at the ATP World Tour Masters 1000 tournaments in Miami, Monte-Carlo and Cincinnati earlier in the season.
Bhupathi and Mirnyi are trying to grab one of the four spots available in the season-ending World Tour Finals in London.
The top eight singles players and pairs compete in the prestigious tournament.
If Bhupathi qualifies for the London event, he will not play for India in the Asian Games, starting November 12 in Guangzhou.
