Davis Cup Asia-Oceania Group-I

KARACHI: Following up on its vow, Pakistan has filed an appeal with the International Tennis Federation, challenging the ITF's decision to shift the Davis Cup Asia-Oceania Group-I tie against India to a neutral venue.

The Pakistan Tennis Federation (PTF) president Salim Saifullah told PTI on Sunday that a formal appeal has been filed with the international body and they were expecting a "positive" response by November 15.

Where Saifullah gets his confidence from is debatable because thus far ITF's actions on the matter have favoured India.
