Nalbandian says glad to be through BNP Paribas Open next round

After defeating Marin Cilic in two tight sets at BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, Argentina-based ethnic Armenian David Nalbandian shared impressions on the success achieved.

“I think the match was a little weird. We both made a number of blunders. Martin badly handled the ball, while I myself couldn’t use all of the chances. Though I can’t call my victory a brilliant one, I am very happy to make it to the next round,” championat.com quoted Nalbandian as saying.

The player said he has to advance his playing techniques to face Serbia’s Janko Tipsarevic.
