PUNE: The Indian Davis Cup team is all set to make its first visit to Pakistan in 60 years in February after the All India Tennis Association’s appeal to shift the World Group I playoff tie from Islamabad to a neutral venue was rejected by an ITF tribunal.
After the two teams were drawn against each other for the February 3-4 clash in September, the AITA had written to the ITF's Davis Cup Committee (DCC) to move the tie to a neutral venue citing security concerns in the light of strained political relations between the two nations.
