April 06, 2017 11:01

Leander Paes dropped from Davis Cup squad. India's Davis Cup Captain Mahesh Bhupathi picks Rohan Bopanna picked for the match against Uzbekistan this weekend.

Bhupathi has said that the focus should be on winning all the matches instead of obsessing over one. India will take on Uzbekistan in an Asia/Oceania Zone Group 1 tie this weekend.

Indias doubles combination for the tie has been a subject of speculation ever since Bhupathi picked four specialist singles players for the tie.

His decision to keep Leander Paes and Rohan Bopanna in reserves raised quite a few eyebrows but one of the two is certain to make the squad after Yuki Bhambri pulled out owing to an injury breakdown.

Bhupathi rejected suggestions that his and Paes 22 doubles titles together is a testimony to the fact that doubles is Indias strong point.
