India vs Denmark, Davis Cup World Group I play-off fixtures, schedule, results and live telecast details
Rohan Bopanna, who made the Australian Open final in mixed doubles, will also be in action.
Denmark will host India in the Davis Cup World Group first-round play-off match. The play-off clash will take place on February 3 and 4 at the Royal Stage in Hillerød, Denmark. The winner of the match will progress to the World Group I qualifiers, while the loser gets relegated to World Group II. India beat Denmark 4-0 when they last met in New Delhi in 2022. However, the Danish were without their star player and World No. 9 Holger Rune. With Rune making a comeback it will be a tough ask for the Indian team.
Yuki Bhambri is scheduled to play in both the singles and doubles section on the opening day, with Sumit Nagal the other Indian participant in singles. The reverse singles fixture will be played on day 2 (February 4) along with the doubles.
