Bopanna paired with Paes despite request to 'sit out'
The All India Tennis Association has paired Rohan Bopanna with Leander Paes for the upcoming Davis Cup tie against China, despite Bopanna expressing his wish to "sit out" of the tie. Notably, the Indian tennis veteran is just one win away from breaking Italy's Nicola Pietrangeli's joint world record of 42 Davis Cup doubles wins.
