MUMBAI: The All India Tennis Association is hopeful its security concerns for next month's tie against hosts Pakistan will be addressed after the game's global governing body referred the matter to its Davis Cup committee.
The call was, however, cancelled and instead the ITF said the Davis Cup committee, comprising eight members and chaired by Egypt's Ismal El Shafei, will deliberate on the matter on Wednesday."The committee members are from different parts of the world so they will set up a appropriate time today that suits everyone. Then they will inform us of their decision," Chatterjee told Reuters on Wednesday."It's a positive, yes. If there was no merit why will the committee discuss.
The nuclear-armed neighbours have fought two wars over Kashmir since gaining independence from colonial power Great Britain in 1947. They came close to a third in February after a deadly attack on Indian police by a Pakistan-based militant group resulted in air strikes by both countries. The ITF shared security arrangements for the Indian team in Islamabad with the AITA and said they were satisfied with the safety plan.
