I am indian too but unlike them , PLease bless me all , my sincere prayers almighty please accept.
Leander even a kid would have picked Mahesh ahead of you.The biggest crisis that is facing Indian Sports is sporting greats not knowing when their time is up...! Learn from gilly dude dont ruin your legendary status by stretching your sagging carrer...!!

Cricket can't be played for Tri-colour you know a**h*le ,you can't get an olympic medal for playing cricket.
Don't compare gilly with paes.I know you will now start comparing tendulkar with bradman bcos you don't know any other sports except cricket where players plays for BCCI not for our country.
In this country called INDIA, SELFLESS people who give anything for the country are made to shame.....why because they dont stand up and take credit for thier work?......
But Selfish people are celebrated like GODS....be it freedom fighters or sportsmen..the selfless people have NO VALUE in this country....
All this is because our mind is weak and we are unable to understand it.
Whatever we say, whether good or bad, there is no denial of the fact that LEANDER is the greatest tennis player till date who had played for our country, He is really a person whom the coming generation should think as role model. The contribution made by Paes to indian tennis is by far the most concrete proof of this. I have seen some of the great matches played by Paes and i must confess, that he will die for a win if he is playing for the country.
How is it a selfless decision if Mr Peas is not in top form or fit and he as a captain picks someone else for the job, when picking the best possible team is his job? The decision that is "selfless" or "selfish" is not a correct decision.

Mahesh is always better than paes in terms his skill, hardwork and downtoearth.
I have closely watched in Bangalore.
It is silly that paes or Rediff posting such comments.
lee n hesh have done india proud...and for some reason they decided not to play together...it was indias bad luck..else we wouldve had a better double team than the woodies...

Mr. cool, you seem to be a bit of an Indophobe. While I agree that the Woodies achieved so much, it is not so far-fetched when one speculates what would have happened if Hesh-Paes had stuck around. FYI, They beat the woodies for the 98 shanghai open title. They won 3 grand slams between 99 and 2001. Guess what, woodies played in all of them. So shut up if you don't know what you are talking about

Hesh didn't agree to play singles in the davis cup when india was in need lot of time and ultimately lee had to play for survival of india in tie.

In any case, they had rocked teh world. They were the world no. 1 doubles pair at some point of time in their careers.
