Play for ur country...
by Prabhat Kumar on Aug 13, 2008 05:12 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

They may be good players but when comes to perform for the country in games like olympic..they have failed..better play for the country instead for self interest..make country u will not only get money but also respect of the contrymen...i dont think these two have got on any mass public respect as a player...sania and and Paes both are popular for the wrong reasons..we need more sportsmen like Abhinav Bindra & Vijayvardhan Rathore..who have taken sport of this country to another height with no sign of any arrogance..only passion for the sports and their country..Long live both of them...

You have no clue about what you are talking about. You have no idea abt Leander Paes Davis cup victories. You have no knowledge what it takes to be in top 30 of world tennis.

You are the example of the proverb: Empty vessel sounds much.

Cannot compare apples with oranges. All achievements (olympics medal, top 30 in tennis, davis cup exploits) are great in their own rights and in the correct contexts.

That what i am telling..no one can deny that they are not good player and have got potential to achieve even at that level but their problem is being into news for wrong reasons, hence, unable to reach to the position where Bindra and rathore has reached..it requires total dedication and focus on the target..
