Huber said on 5 live that she normally took the lead but was more than happy to let Jamie and that she could not believe some of the volleys that he played...she was very impressed.

Here's a great match report from the LTA website:

Murray and Huber registered their third straight sets win as many matches to completely outplay the Polish duo of Agnieszka Radwanska and Mariusz Fyrstenberg 6-1, 6-2 with a brand of aggressive and polished doubles tennis.

Just two days earlier Radwanska was producing the shock of the tournament to eliminate defending champion Maria Sharapova from the womens singles. Her path in that competition came to an end at the hands of Israels 18th seed Shahar Peer and the relentless superiority of Murray and Huber meant it became a miserable day for the teenager from Krackow.

And Huber revealed that one of the biggest motivations for the pair is to make up for their disappointments in their own doubles competition. Huber and Cara Black were seeded No.1 in the womens doubles but lost in the second round to the Argentine pairing of Maria Elena Camerin and Gisela Dulko.

Meanwhile in the mens doubles Murrays last alliance with Eric Butorac also ended in the second round against Justin Gimelstob and Amer Delic of the United States. We are both pretty upset with our results in doubles and it eases the pain to do well in the mixed, said Huber.

Murray is clearly maturing into one of the most accomplished and gregarious doubles players on the circuit. Although it appears he has simply taken up with Huber where he left off with Jelena Jankovic in winning the Wimbledon title, he maintains the partnerships are very different.

Liezel likes to come to the net and volley whereas Jelena prefers to stay at the back of the court and hit. I guess they have both worked out pretty well so far, said Murray.

Shes been around longer than me and played at a high level longer than I have so the experience is certainly helping me.
