Paes returns to Davis Cup team; Rohan, Somdev, Yuki also named

42-year-old Paes is back in the team after missing the 3-2 victory over New Zealand in March. He will be joined by Rohan Bopanna, Somdev Devvarman and Yuki Bhambri, who played a decisive role in Indian's victory over New Zealand in the Asia-Oceania Group I tie in Christchurch.

Young Saketh Myneni who played in the doubles in New Zealand was dropped to make way for Paes. Myneni, however, has been named a reserve along with Ramkumar Ramanathan by the All India Tennis Association selection committee.

"The Selection Committee meeting was held a few days back and Leander Paes has been named in the team. Saketh Myneni has been dropped," selection committee chairman S P Mishra said.

"Somdev Devvvarman and Yuki Bhambri will play the singles while Paes and Rohan Bopanna will play the doubles," he said. http://post.jagran.com/paes-returns-to-davis-cup-team-rohan-somdev-yuki-also-named-1439532087
