World number one Andy Murray was sent packing from the second round of the BNP Paribas Open on Saturday after being beaten 6-4 7-6(5) by Canadian qualifier Vasek Pospisil. Pospisil finished off Murray in style, whipping a cross court winner on his fourth match point before celebrating in front of the near capacity crowd at Indian Wells. Earlier, Italian Fabi Fognini won a battle of expectant fathers when he beat Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 7-6(4) 3-6 6-4. It's a good victory for sure," Fognini told Tennis Channel after beating Tsonga for the first time in five career meetings. The Italian dropped the first set to love and was down 5-2 in the second set of his first-round encounter with Russian Konstantin Kravchuk, before roaring back to win 0-6 7-5 6-4.
