N Sriram Balaji, partnered with Miguel Reyes-Varela of Mexico, progressed to the second round of the Wimbledon 2025 men's doubles tournament. The Indo-Mexican duo secured a victory over the American team of Learner Tien and Aleksandar Kovacevic, winning 6-4, 6-4. The match lasted 71 minutes, with Balaji and Reyes-Varela breaking their opponents' serve once in each set.

Balaji and Reyes-Varela are set to face a tough challenge in the next round against fourth seeds Marcel Granollers of Spain and Horacio Zeballos of Argentina.

Meanwhile, Rohan Bopanna and his Belgian partner, Sander Gillé, faced an early exit from Wimbledon 2025, losing in the first round to the third-seeded German duo of Tim Pütz and Kevin Krawietz. The German pair won in straight sets, 6-3, 6-4. Bopanna and Gille struggled against the consistent play of Pütz and Krawietz, who broke serve once in each set.

Yuki Bhambri, along with his American partner Robert Galloway, advanced to the second round. Bhambri and Galloway, seeded 16th, defeated Romain Arneodo of Monaco and Manuel Guinard of France 7-6(8), 6-4. The match lasted for an hour and 49 minutes. Bhambri and Galloway will next face the winner of the match between Robin Haase and Jean-Julien Rojer, or Marcos Giron and Nuno Borges.

Rithvik Bollipalli and his Colombian partner, Nicolás Barrientos, also progressed to the second round. They beat David Goffin of Belgium and Alexandre Muller of France 4-6, 6-4, 7-6 (11). Bollipalli and Barrientos saved as many as four match points to win against Muller and Goffin. They are set to face either the sixth-seeded British pair of Joe Salisbury and Neal Skupski, or the wildcards Joshua Paris and Charles Broom.

With Balaji, Bhambri and Bollipalli moving forward, and Bopanna's exit, the Indian presence in the Wimbledon 2025 men's doubles continues.
