The experienced doubles pair of Leander Paes and Mahesh Bhupathi have a whopping combined 27 Grand Slams between them. The Indian Express formed an undefeatable pair, but there were some frictions arising due to many reasons. However, the two are holders of a unique record.

The Indian pair has the longest doubles winning streak in the history of the Davis Cup. They had 23 consecutive wins that ended in their last Davis Cup match win as a pair against Marcelo Melo and Bruno Soares of Brazil in 2010.
