Its best not to pass comments when no body actually knows what problem exists between the two,and who is genuinely responsible for it.But for the sake of their motherland they should both forget their differences and play for the country. ALL THE BEST BOYS, NOW YOU BOTH HAVE GROWN-UP SO IT IS BEST THAT YOU BEHAVE LIKE ONE AND STOP FUSSING AND SULKING.
It is time the media stopped its attention on these over rated players of cricket and tennis who win one match in 50 and behave as if they are world champs. Who cares if Mahesh pairs with Paes or with Laloo Prasad . End result a big ZERO anyway. Focus on Gilli danda people or Kabbadi or tic tac toe !

its not 200 countries my friends..just south asian countires not even all asain countries
we hardly have 5 to 6 names in this game. my personal view mr MaheshB should not join in with paes, for simple reason they dont make a pair! instaed it will prudent enough if this guys who are expereience groom new talent and make india proud.. lets not be emotional fools and talk about patriotism when paes has gone in record ambusing MG... india wake up and be strong.. try new and harder ways to conquer anything and everything - an indian ( you have an option to report abuse or stand up and get counted here)
They were capable one time but not now. They have not played together since a long time and international level requires commitment and practice. They are other pairs which have good practice and i am sure that they will be out soon due to lack of experience as a pair.
When they were together it was beneficial for them but they could not manage it. Perhaps they have missed the history they could make.

Soni sahab how many years have you been coaching at the international level. Seems some good experience on your shoulders! ;)
The Indian fan is the most illitrate in the world. He/She has no idea of sports and it's intricacies. These two male indian tennins players cost us an olympic medal with their infighting and then there is Sania Mirza.An ordinary player like Sania Mirza is hyped up so much that she has lost complete focus on how to be a professional tennis player.
To top it all they know nothing about Tennis.The Grand Slam is the pinnacle of this sport. You are evaluated on how you perform in the slams. How many indians know this? Dose Mirza have it all to make a presence in the slams? The answer is big no. She is not fit,has a weak serve and the newness is gone as all the players who play against her know this and easily sort her out. They know that they should play to her backhand which is her weakness and step way in to receive her serve which is another weakness and then make her run around the court testing her fitness.We have to accept that she is FAT. Justine Hardnine and ex player Arantxa sanchez are the same height as Mirza but they dont look fat. They are all muscle.
The fans will decry me that i need to shut up and be proud that an Indian has atleast come to this level. But my friends you can support her in the begning but still after 3 years of no show? Agreed that she won a couple of 3rd round matches in some grandslams some 3 years back but what after that? She has been inundated with money way way beyond her wildest dreams. What dose she do with the annual 9 crores in endorsements she earns? Why cant she hire the best tennis mind in the business as coach? Why cant she base herself in florida or europe and train hard to get rid of that fat and tone her muscle? Why cant she work out with state of the art facilities available in the west?
Whats wrong in spending a couple of crores for this purpose? The answer is we indians are greedy to save money. We want our talent to do the work and not the fitness regimn that goes along with that.Martina Hingis came off a long layoff and entered the top 10.She was absent for almost 2 years. But this lady fakes injury every 6 months and dishes out pathetic performance after perfrmance.
And always having a Dad in tow instead of professional support staff is not helping either.We as Indians have supported her during the fist year and a half but after all this exposure to the circuit and all the money in he world and all the star status that goes with it she is still not at the top level. She can never be as she has crossed 20 years of age and thats old by tennis standards.Sharapova won Wimbledon at 17.She is going to dish these kind of first round second round performances in the future too and Rediff and the media is going to go ga ga over her 50th 60th 70th ranking etc fooling the public. She will always be in the limelight coz of the ad's and always make money.
But the illitrate indian fans will support her stating the stale reason that she is indias first woman to play tennis in the slams blah blah blah.
Anju Bobby George won a Bonze in long jump in the WORLD CHAMPIONSHP of athetics and no one remembers that. That was the greatest physical peformance an indian sports person has EVER come in the international stage. Rathore won a silver but that was not as physical as Anjus acheivement. People in india are always equating sports with the money they make like Mirza and Tendulkar. pathetic mentality of the indians towards sports has to change. So first step stop suporting this overrated egoistic arrogant mediocore Mirza.

It is the duty of the media to educate the public, but our media such as Ind express and rediff.com are hell bent on hyping anything that looks sexually attractive, that probably explains Sania Mirza's undoing.
