Leander Paes and Mahesh Bhupathi quelled a late challenge from Tsung-Hua Yang and Chu-Huan Yi to carve out a hard fought 6-4, 7-6, 6-7 (2), 6-2 win in the doubles rubber of the second round Davis Cup tie against Chinese Taipei to hand India a 2-1 advantage on Saturday.
Paes-Bhupathi were cruising along comfortably after winning the first two sets but the Taipei pair surprised by pulling back the third. However, the Indian were quick to recapture the match as they rode on a double break to win the fourth set and seal the tie. On Sunday, Somdev Devvarman, who won the first singles, faces Yen-Hsun Lu while Rohan Bopanna, takes on Ti Chen in the fourth and fifth rubbers respectively.
