Best wishes to the Paes-Bhupathi combo in Beijing and beyond. The two have brought glory to our country in the past and they have the experience to do it all over again.
Not just chemistry but also history (of their past performances) and mathematics (of their number of victories together) is right. Also Geography is with them since they know virtually all surfaces and climates thanks to their experience.
Perhaps Biology is not going their way - both are aging. And they are also not so good at Social Studies.
Both of them as a pain in the butt. Ego problems, think too much of themselves, think they are indispensable, swollen headed, stinkers that's what they are. They should quit playing for India.
Paes is right. Both players chemistry with each other is amazing despite their dispute. They have played many years with each other. When they play together for country , both forget about their dispute. So I hope they will do very good in Olympics.
first they had huge ego clashes when they were the best doubles team. their success went to their head. now they want to try to play together because its not working with other partners. ego maniacs.
Does anyone else feel the same way like I do. Leander and Bhupathi have brought in a lot of fame to India in the past. But there records for the last few years show that they are not in the top for sure. For me it is a Joke to send our seniors who done well in the past and expect miracle or depend on luck for them to perform. I would rather had younger folks given a chance and if they win it brings up a new cream of tennis players in India.
I dont see a back up plan for Mahesh and Leander. I wouldn't be surprised if "REDIFF" editor contributor slams these guys when they loose miserably. I would be happy to be proved wrong but reality will speak for itself.
Its a shame that Indian Tennis board can come up with Leander and Mahesh. I care less about there chemistry. I am sure they will do there best. But I am pretty sure they dont stand a chance against the new pool of younger players.
