Indian tennis stalwart Leander Paes has said that he will reassess his Davis Cup future after the tie against Croatia in March next year. The Indian Davis Cup team landed in Delhi during the wee hours of Monday after securing a 4-0 win against Pakistan at the neutral venue of Kazakhstan on Saturday.
Paes was asked about the physical and mental challenges he has to cope with. "Physically, it is not tough because doubles have three short sets. You got a tie-break at 6-all and the scoring format is very quick. It is an hour and a half or two hours. Experience carries me through, but I should not be playing past another year. I am already 46. I should have been moved out by the next generation coming up," Paes said.
