New Delhi -- Only one of world tennis Big Four -- Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray and Rafael Nadal -- will feature in the upcoming season of the IPTL, which has shifted base to Hyderabad, even as its founder Mahesh Bhupathi asserted that there are no payment issues around the league.IPTL, a concept launched by Indias first Grand Slam winner Bhupathi, featured a marquee clash between Indian Aces Nadal and UAE Royals Federer last year in Delhi.In the absence of star players, such a clash will be missed this year as world number 28 Feliciano Lopez from Spain is so far the highest-ranked singles male player in the Indian team.Both Nadal and Federer have faced injury issues this season and cut short their respective 2016 season. Federer has not played since Wimbledon and Nadal wrapped up his season in October. Djokovic had featured in the inaugural season for Dubai but had missed the 2015 edition.One of the Big Four is definitely coming. We did not want to reveal all our cards today. We will announce the name in the next 48 hours, Bhupathi told PTI, confirming that a few big names will be missed.All the players we had last year are back. We had a long list of players who wanted to come but unfortunately could not come because there were no spots. Everything is good. Thats why they say dont believe in everything you read.Bhupathi said the Indian team had shifted base to Hyderabad to take the league to other parts of the country.There is no particular reason, we did it there (Delhi) for two years, the fans enjoyed world class tennis. The concept was built about having one team for country. Last year, we did it in Kobe (in Japan), this year we are doing it in Tokyo. The owners wanted an opportunity to move to a different city, to see if they get good buzz, Bhuapthi said.Phillipines Mavericks are also not featuring in the 2016 season.?The owners still own the team but there was some political instability there, there were worries about players travelling there, Bhupathi clarified on the absence of Mavericks.Indias veteran star Leander Paes, who played for Japan Warriors last year, will also be missing this season.?The number of players changed since one team sat out, Bhupathi said.Multiple Grand Slam winner Serena Williams is the biggest name revealed so far among women. World No.5 Kei Nishikori is the highest-ranked male player confirmed so far. Joe Oliver Jersey .

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Geno Smith got hurt and Ryan Fitzpatrick got mad, calling out team brass after coming off the bench to rally the New York Jets to a 24-16 victory over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday at MetLife Stadium.The biggest thing in this game, in order to last, is to have belief in yourself, because when the owner stops believing in you, the GM stops believing in you, and the coaches stop believing in you, sometimes all you have is yourself, said a defiant Fitzpatrick, who was benched last week.Thats kind of something Ive had to deal with before, something Im dealing with now.Smith started his first game since Dec. 28, 2014, but he twisted his right knee on a second-quarter sack and left the game. He will have an MRI exam on Monday.Something just felt funny when I got up, Smith said. I dont think it will be anything too significant, but well see.Coach Todd Bowles said its too early to tell if Smith will be healthy enough to start next Sunday versus the Browns.Fitzpatrick, in the unfamiliar role of relief pitcher, entered the game with the Jets trailing 13-7?in the second quarter. On his first series, he went 4-for-4, including a 13-yard scoring pass to Matt Forte to culminate an 85-yard drive.Fitzpatrick (9-for-14, 120 yards) admitted he played angry.I probably play better as an underdog, pissed off, so going forward, yeah, Ill be pissed off, he said.Fitzpatrick learned of his demotion on Tuesday, the day after Bowles gave him a ppublic vote of confidence following a Monday night loss to the Arizona Cardinals -- the Jets fourth straight defeat.dddddddddddd The quarterback leads the league?with 11 interceptions.Owner Woody Johnson told the NFL Network he was fully supportive of Bowles decision to bench Fitzpatrick, who signed a one-year, $12 million contract on the eve of training camp.Clearly, Fitzpatrick was stung by the benching.Asked about the perceived lack of support from the brass, he said, When you get put on the bench, I think thats the reason why. People giving up on you, and then having to see them every day, that stuff is not necessarily the easiest in the world, but its something that you try to deal with as mature as you can and move on.Fitzpatrick got the call when Smith, after only 24 plays, retreated to the bench and started complaining about his knee. Fitzpatrick knew he was headed back to the huddle.Yeah, unless they wanted to go to Wildcat, I thought Id be the guy, he said, smiling. But its a pretty ironic situation.Sundays injury was another blow for Smith, who said he was begging to go back in the game.Thats how stuff works, man, said Smith, who completed 4 of 8 passes for 95 yards and a touchdown. Thats how life works. Im not thinking about that right now. Im just happy that we won. Ill be fine, but well see how it goes. ' ' '
