Re: Wimbledon 2017
DiPu have broken exactly when it mattered, and are now serving for the match at 6-5 in the final set!!
They had one match point, but couldn't convert, and were broken soon thereafter. 6-6
7-7 now, after opponents held to love, and we held at 30. Nail-biting stuff.
Opponents hold to love again. 7-8. (I sense a shift in momentum ever since our pair failed to convert the match point).
DiPu hold at 15. 8-all.
Time to pressure the opponents' serve. No, they hold easily again.
0-30, 30-all, 40-30, Deuce, Ad-out, Match. DiPu lost 3-6 4-6 6-4 7-6(6) 8-10
Epic battle, but not enough in the end. They have to hold their nerve when the match is in their grasp. Not easy when such big prizes loom ahead.

Re: Wimbledon 2017
Damn, third consecutive close 5 setter loss for our mens doubles pairs.
And sad that DiPu could not close it out after fighting back so hard from 2 sets down.

J. Cerretani (USA)/R. Voracova (CZE) vs P. Raja (IND)/E. Hozumi (JPN) 7-5, 4-6 Play suspended due to fading light

The great days of Indian doubles are over. The future would be as frustrating as singles.

Not yet Sania is still there and a good news for her Mattek Sand has injured her knee and also lets see how far Gabriela Dabrowski can carry Bopanna.rajitghosh wrote: ↑Sat Jul 08, 2017 1:43 am The great days of Indian doubles are over. The future would be as frustrating as singles.

Re: Wimbledon 2017
Conquerors of Jeevan take out the no 2 seeds Herbert and Mahut in 5! The bottom half of the mens doubles is wide open with Klassen/Ram being the highest remaining seeds.
