Very poor attitude by Leander Paes. He used his politics to get into the team. 2 days back only he came from New York. Yesterday I saw him doing Dance Jig in Marchpast during Olympics. No wonder they lost in First Round itself. They should have let Bopanna choose partner of his choice. In Doubles, you cannot force players to play with each other. Shame on Khannas of AITA who forced Paes in the team.
@namewtheld India always lost the first match in Olympics. This time we won and as @sam said, first victory in 12 years. Our PC routine clicked. I am more then happy with their play. Ireland is a difficult team. Umpire made life difficult in last 5-6 minutes with constant fouls against India. Every 50-50 decision he gave against India.
It looks like Jitu Rai has Qualified for Finals. He came 6th as per Official Website of Rio 2016. Mens 10 m Air Pistol. Gurpreet Singh came 20th and didnt qualify.
Leander and AITA were saying that Bopanna and Paes would arrive a week before the games and practice together and get acclimatized. But he is filling his pockets playing in some exhibition tennis tournament in USA and Bopanna keeps waiting. Book his flight ticket to India as early as possible. 'Selfish' will be a word too small to use for him.

All eyes on Jitu Rai now.
