Pakistan, June 27 -- Pakistan will take on India, but this time on a tennis court, during the Davis Cup Asia Oceania Group-I tie in September this year. The Pakistan Tennis Federation (PTF) announced the clash in a press release on Wednesday. The tie will be played on a grass-court at the Pakistan Sports Complex in Islamabad. This is will be the first time after 13 years that the two Asian arch-rivals, whose cricketing encounters draw millions of viewers, will face each other on a tennis court. The last time Pakistan and India played each other was in April 2006, when Mumbai played the role of the host. Earlier, Pakistan hosted Uzbekistan, South Korea and Thailand in 2017 and 2018.
