The Indian tennis team, on a historic tour to Pakistan, will take on the hosts in the Davis Cup 2024 Group 1 play-off tie on February 3 and 4 at the Pakistan Sports Complex in Islamabad.

The five matches of the India vs Pakistan Davis Cup tennis tie will be live streamed in India.

India entered the World Group 1 play-offs after beating Morocco 4-1 in the World Group II play-off at the Vijayant Khand Mini Stadium in Gomti Nagar, Lucknow, last September.

A victory against Pakistan will take India into World Group I to be played in September later this year.

This is the Indian Davis Cup team’s first visit to Pakistan since 1964. The visitors will be playing without the experience of 43-year-old Rohan Bopanna, who bid farewell to Davis Cup tennis last year.

Sumit Nagal, India’s best-ranked singles tennis player at world No. 121, has also pulled out of the Davis Cup encounter against Pakistan citing personal reasons.

India’s singles challenge will be led by Ramkumar Ramanathan, 461st in the world tennis rankings, on Saturday. Sriram Balaji has been handed over the responsibility to play the second singles match for India.

Yuki Bhambri and Saketh Myneni will pair up to take on Pakistan’s doubles team.

For Pakistan, Muzammil Murtaza is the best-ranked singles player at world No. 1681.

Meanwhile, India coach Zeeshan Ali will double up as the captain of the side after Rohit Rajpal withdrew from the tie citing personal reasons.
