Bengaluru, March 28 (SocialNews.XYZ) Indian tennis great Leander Paes will be doing a live workout with his doubles partner Matthew Ebden on Saturday on his Twitter handle. Paes tweeted a video earlier in the day in which he made the announcement.
Ebden and Paes had most recently teamed up at the Dubai Tennis Championships where they lost in the quarter-finals Henri Kontinen and Jan-Lennard Struff.
