India prepares for Davis Cup challenge against South Korea in Seoul

India's Davis Cup non-playing captain Rohit Rajpal stated that the team is prepared to face the challenges of playing against South Korea on their home soil. The two teams are scheduled to compete in the World Group Qualifier Round 2 in Seoul on September 18 and 19.

Rajpal noted the difficulty of the matchup, anticipating that the South Korean team may attempt to slow down the court to leverage their home advantage. To prepare, the Indian squad is arriving early to acclimatize to the local conditions.

The five-member squad includes Sumit Nagal, Dakshineshwar Suresh, and Manas Dhamne, who is making his debut. Doubles duties will be handled by Yuki Bhambri and N. Sriram Balaji, with Siddharth Rawat and Arnav Paparkar serving as reserves.
