Djokovic Beats Nadal to Reach BNP Paribas Open Final

 Novak Djokovic beat Rafael Nadal to reach the BNP Paribas Open Final at Indian Wells on Saturday. 
Serbia's world number one defeated Nadal 7-6 (7-5) 6-2 for a 10th win in their last 11 meetings. 
The world's top-ranked Djokovic will meet Milos Raonic in Sunday's final, with Djokovic trying to win a record fifth title in the California desert. He has won the last two years. 
Djokovic extended his advantage over Nadal on hard courts to 18-7, winning the last seven times since the Spaniard beat him in the 2013 US Open final. 
The Serb also owns a 25-23 edge in the longest running rivalry in the Open era, having won six straight meetings and 10 of the last 11. 
Nadal, a three-time winner here, came up short in making his 100th career singles final with his second loss to Djokovic this year. Djokovic won in the final at Doha in January. Nadal hasn't won a title on hard courts since 2014 in Doha.
