Leander Paes [Images] and Martin Damm marched into the quarter-finals while the promising duo of Mahesh Bhupathi [Images] and Jamie Murray were ousted by top seeds Mike and Bob Bryan at the Cincinnati Masters on Thursday.

The fourth seeded Indo-Czech duo ousted Frenchmen Julien Benneteau and Arnaud Clement 6-4, 7-5 in the second round.

They will take on fifth seeds Paul Hanley [Images] and Kevin Ullyett in the quarterfinals.

Paes-Damm, who led 5-2 with two breaks in the second set, clinched the match by serving it out in the 12th game.

The Bryans, chasing their second Cincinnati title, looked sharp in a 6-3, 6-2 win over Bhupathi-Jamie Murray.

They did not face a break point and lost just 11 points on serve. In last week's Montreal semifinals the Bryans lost to Bhupathi and Pavel Vizner after blowing two match points.
