India’s Davis Cup World Group 1 playoff against Pakistan is scheduled to take place this week on the grass court of Islamabad. This time the battle is going to be a little challenging for the Indian Tennis team who will be without the Australian Open men's doubles champion, Rohan Bopanna who became the oldest tennis player to secure a number one rank in the standings.

However, history speaks in India’s favour as it is the reigning champion in the same match played against Pakistan in 2019 at a neutral venue.

Given the border tensions between both nations, several complications arrived regarding the issue of visas for Indians to visit Pakistan, and the most important one remains the issue of safety in which the hosts are not ready to compromise.

However, now all issues have been resolved, the Pakistan High Commission granted visas to the Indian Tennis players. In addition, as for security just after the Indian Davis Cup players arrived in Islamabad, five layers of security were imposed around them by the Pakistan Tennis Federation. 

Team India is en route to their first-ever victory in the Tennis World Cup aka Davis Cup. Their best score was achieved in 1987 when they were the runners-up. Besides, Pakistan as well, never lifted a Davis Cup, despite having a rich history. India has been runners up 3 times in the past: 1966, 1974 and 1987, and owner of a plethora of grand records of the game.
