Not much hype but a really good achievement by Aisam-ul-Haq and his partner Rohan Bopanna (India) to make it to the quarter finals of Wimbledon men's doubles.

Proud of you Aisam!!

What is wrong with you?

They are dominating doubles pair. Who cares if his partner is Indian?

Sad to see that they didn't put up much fight. Nevertheless, they had played well to reach the quarterfinal.

Aisam and Bopanna have lost a number of finals/semifinals of various tournaments this year.

First of All,Well done Aisam and Bopanna for making it that far..

Well,tbh,they squandered a huge opportunity to go further in the tourny....All the top teams like, Nestor/Zimonjic ,Bryan/Bryan Dlouhy/Paes ,Bhupati / Mirnyi and others had been knocked out and the draw was wide open but a shame they lost to Petzchner/Melzer,a team that is pretty much unknown.Both of them,Petzchner and Melzer are good singles players but never really seen them playing together....So,Aisam and Bopanna should have capitalised on that opportunity..

Well,lets hope its not an one-off performance and they repeat their heroics in future slams as well..
