#3 Saketh Mynenis big serve
Saketh Myneni continued from where he left off at last year’s CTL. His rapport with Marcos Baghdatis proved invaluable to the Pune Marathas’ success in 2014, and it was the same story this season for the Punjab Marshalls.
Ranked at No. 126 in the ATP doubles rankings, the 28-year-old has become one of the most dependable Indian players in this format. He brought all the confidence from his two Challenger titles this year into the CTL, and played his heart out.
Myneni’s big serve immediately gives an advantage to whichever team he represents, and so it did for the Punjab franchise this year. But what was more striking to see was how he stayed cool and collected even when he had to come out of his comfort zone.
During Punjab’s group match versus the Raipur Rangers, his partner Baghdatis was feeling under the weather. But the Indian did not let that hamper his team’s chances as he compensated with his brilliant strokes whenever the Cypriot came up short.
It's no wonder Myneni was adjudged the best Indian player once again – his second successive Margaret Amritraj award.
