India had a good day in office as Rohan Bopanna secured his third Grand Slam semifinal berth while Leander Paes too sealed his place in the last four stage but Mahesh Bhupathi was knocked out of the men's doubles competition at Wimbledon on Tuesday.
Bopanna and Roger-Vasselin had knocked out third seeds Alexander Peya of Austria and Bruno Soares of Brazil in their previous match.
It will be Bopanna's only third Grand Slam semifinal appearance and first at Wimbledon, having played US Open last-four in 2010, when he ended runners-up to American twins Mike and Bob Bryan and in 2011 when he did not go beyond the semifinal stage.
Bopanna and Roger-Vasselin had a match point in the fourth set but Lindstedt and Nestor saved that and strecthed the set into a tie-breaker, which they won to force decisive fifth set.
An early break handed Bopanna and his partner a 3-1 lead and that stayed with them for a win in the end.
In another quarterfinal duel, veteran Paes and his Czech partner Radek Stepanek, seeded fourth, took two hours and 39 minutes to get the better 11th seeds Nenad Zimonjic of Serbia and Julien Benneteau of France.
The fourth-seeded Indo-Czech pairing won 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-4.
Top seeds Bob Bryan and Mike Bryan of the US beat eighth seeds Mahesh Bhupathi and Julian Knowle of Austria 7-6(5), 7-6(3), 7-6(4) in the quarter-finals.
