It is quite sad for Indian tennis that too much ego is hurting its progress. Bhupathi should know that he came up only after playing with Paes. I have followed both Paes and Bhupathi since the first time each played their tennis. Though Paes some times doesnt know how to control his emotions in public, it is a fact that his contribution to Indian tennis is far more than any other player till date. Bhupathi should learn to contribute some thing to the country before playing politics and ruining this sport. Please see how many people are taking up this as a sport now after seeing all this drama.

you have got a unidimensional view singha, and you will see that there is a generalised public favour in support of peas, same cannot be said of bhupathi

Nonsense. Bhupati any day is a better double player. Results speak out for themselves.
paes though is infinitely better in PR like shah rukh khan.

Bhupati Rocks...............!!! its time enough for an aged player like Paes to go off...........!!!(atleast from playing singles that also the last matches in a tie to players ranked some 700 in the world)
He has done this time and again........!!! but cant blame him he has learnt this art from Ramesh Krishnan who used to do so just for credit....!!!
Its only when u play a 5 setter match that too in the decider u are called a hero. No matter who the opposition is, No matter ur other team mate is expected to crush him as nut in straight sets u see an oppurtunity 2 be a hero and grab it with both hands and guess what voila u r a national hero, u have millions of fans u r the greatest player and so on....
If I were a team i would never had questioned the integrity of my mate, No one loses a match willingly atleast NOT my mate would, but isnt it an excellent escape If the team wins its I who played all good the other player was a joker standing out there and if the team loses its the joker who cost us the match....... this isnt professional... not even a KG kid would say so..........
Its time that the country needs services of both players in singles Get on guys...!!! Let others also come through...!!!
No doubt u are a teat still in doubles just concentrate on that eithertogether or seperated anyways.....!!!
