At €2.75M Paris Masters, France

[R2] (4) Leander Peas (IND)/ Mahesh Bhupathi (IND) l Santiago Gonzalez (MEX)/ Christopher Kas (GER) 63 16 8-10

Expected loss against regular doubles pair due to lack of match practice but I m not worrying ... Lee and Mahesh will be in form with good practice at ATP Tour Finals.
