AITA selector Rohit Rajpal yesterday lashed out at Mahesh Bhupathi and Rohan Bopanna yesterday who released a joint statement slamming the AITA's decision to pair Bhupathi with Leander Paes for the Olympics
“It’s very unfortunate that they have come up with this statement. They should bury their differences and play for the pride of the country,” Rajpal said.

Meanwhile, in respect of mixed doubles, it was decided that only if Sania Mirza is able to get a wild card by June 28, will AITA decide on whether she will partner Paes or Bhupathi. That decision will be made only after Wimbledon.u00a0
