In doubles, performance is important but, equally important is the chemistry in the team. These two guys keep busy in mudslinging against each other for years and then if we think they will bring medals... :-)...
To be the best, you have to beat the best. And Akhil has shown just that. Paes - Bhupathi can just talk to talk. But it seems this young gun of the Indian soil can Walk to Walk. Good Luck! Akhil, Give it your best shot.

So typical of Indian supporter.. they failed at the Olympics but they have won a couple of Grndslams together... you shouldnt forget it .. what do you mean by "useless" tennis players?? You fool! .. Looks like you will say the same about our Athletes too in other events .. Its useless people like the reason why we dont do well at sports Mr Raghavan! Rathore could not win this time.. Will you call him useless too? have you even held a Tennis racket in your hands .. Have you even competed in Sports events? Winning and Losing are both part of sports you must understand that Mister!

Well said Mr.Vikram. Winning and loosing is part of sports.But it you feel better if u have lost giving your best performance till date especially in an event as big as olympics. See our Shooters(except Abhinav) who performed way below their best. We Indians need to change our slogan. its not all about participation. its about winning. Remember what a great champion like Martina Navaratilova said, " Whoever said its all about participation, probably never won".
