It is not age that matters in this era. So callled youngs should prove better to be selected. One day all of us will become 45. That time we surely would look forward to leander for inspiration.It is a matter of raising the bar for definition of young

absolutely. Its not about age. Just look at fedex. over 35 and still belting aces, firing winners down the line and across on both flanks, creating openings and hitting deadly backhand returns to complement his awesome forehand.
This has become a nonsense every time. Leander paes is a proven champion for India. Bhupathi is no body. Time to settle this issue once and for all with out any ambiguity.

When did I say Paes is a youngster? Based on your logic and other comments people die by the age of 43! Grow up, get out of the house and see the world.

Just FYI Sandeep... Martina Navratilova retired when she was around 50. she was in Olympics tennis women's quarter finals when she was 48. Sports has no age if you have the desire and form.
THIS IDIOT BHUPATHI SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN MADE THE CAPTAIN IN THE FIRST PLACE.HE IS BASICALLY A BUSINESSMAN AND WON SOME TITLES ON THE BACK OF PAES's PERFORMANCE.BOPANNA SHOILD ALSO BE KICKED OUT OF THE TEAM.

You are right .he sat on the back of Leander and won a few doubles titles and then his father and others decided to break the partneship What a sad day for Indian Tennis when we do not even know our current singles players name.

By GS.Raju, Bangalore you are right, Bhupathi not fit to be a captain, not considering the best performance is a fault,insulting,disservice to the country, keeping out personal differences is the key to be captain. performance is the key,Remove him from captaincy at once. Sorry,Great sportsman Leander!

Going by your logic people should die at 43. When he still winning how does it matter whether he is 43 or 44. Point is Bhupati & Bopanna has created a cartel and continually tried to undermine Leander.
