‘It is great for me to get reunited with Qureshi and I am really looking forward to continue (the partnership). It is (also) a very positive sign and we can do extremely well (in next season, beginning January),’ he told reporters here on the sidelines of ‘Unshaven is Unbathed’ movement launched by Gillette.
The Indo-Pak pair, who took the world by storm by reaching the US Open final in 2010, will be coming together for the new season, commencing with ATP Tour in Chennai.
Bopanna parted ways with Qureshi in 2011 to partner compatriot Mahesh Bhupathi, keeping an eye on 2012 London Olympics. The Pakistani united with Jean-Julien Rojer. A haywire and not-too-impressive last season for both Bopanna and Qureshi prompted them to announce their reunification for the next season.
Even though Bopanna reached a career-high individual doubles ranking of world number three, playing with a string of partners, the Bangalore-lad failed to qualify for London’s Barclays ATP World Tour Finals. Bopanna changed five doubles partners in 2013.
