Paes-Damm duo loses an inconsequential match

Nov 16: The Indo-Czech pair of Leander Paes and Martin Damm went down 3-6, 4-6 against Australian-Zimbabwean pair of Paul Hanley and Kevin Ullyett in a dead rubber of their group’s final league match at the season ending Masters Cup here on Thursday.

The match had no importance for both the pairs, as both of them have already booked their berth in the last four-stage.

Though it was an inconsequential match for both the pairs but still it gave away an upper hand to the Australian-Zimbabwean pair, as there is a possibility that both the teams might face each other once again in the title clash, if they emerge winners in their respective semifinals.

This is the last season for the Paes-Damm duo and they would surely want to end their unforgettable partnership on a winning note.
