rediff is pathetic in providing news. The headline reads Bhupathi beats paes to reach semis. It means he beat him in singles. Its not singles match its doubles match. Indian players are not good enough to beat others in singles why the heck rediff gives such junk news headlines which make no sense

Bhupathi is true SPORTSMAN not true INDIAN. When it comes to play for Country first, we can rely on PAES (I hope everybody remember the DAVIS cup match against Pakistan when Paes was suffering from crapms and score was 2-2, still he played and won for INDIA and BHUPATHI simply refuse. Does any body has example from BHUPATHI.

If Bhupati did not happen to suffer from cramps (and play subsequently), You cant declare him "Not True Indian" You mean one must suffer cramps to be true Indian.

according to the news we get, Even Bhupati wants to play for India but a place in Indian Davis cup team is defined by dominance and presently Paes and his father dominate.
