The last minute decision to formulate the team for any tie is the captain's prerogative (Mahesh Bhupathi). His being in the team is invaluable with the experience and energy he brings to the Davis Cup. "I would love to see Leander complete his record in the future. He is one of the greatest players in Davis Cup history and has served the country for a long time", said Rohit to India Today. This is certainly a setback for 18-time Grand Slam champion Leander Paes but he is sure to get an opportunity in the future to etch his name in history.
