Nadal dominates on his serve in easy win

Rafael Nadal has beaten world number 134 Igor Sijsling 6-4 6-2 in the second round of the BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells.

The match took just 74 minutes, and Nadal made the perfect start by breaking Sijsling's serve in the very first game.

The Dutchman managed to hold the rest of his service games in the first set, but only scored two points against Nadal's serve as the Spanish powerhouse took the opener.

Nadal will meet American Donald Young in the third round.
