Not heard of Balaji! Whats his background ?

He's a decent doubles player, and has been picked by Rohan Bopanna to play with him at the Olympics.

cool - are the Olympic doubles pairings to date listed?

Bradford, which is next to Ilkley (as is Leeds), has a 2.6% "identify as Indian" population. I notice that Ilkley mens doubles event has 9 Indian doubles players in it, so some good support might happen for them. With Luke from Leeds, they will certainly be the fans favourites at Ilkley!

People are speculating on doubles teams, but it will be a while before entries are released. Nations have until 19 June to nominate doubles teams, and then they go through the process of working through entries. Eight of the pairs are Singles priority.

The full list of entries will be announced on 4 July, but nations are free to announce individual teams before then.

Cool - but Bopanna has already indicated publicly he will choose Balaji?
