“We feel very confident that our guys are going to be able to match the Indian team and cause them some problems because we know that we are able to play good tennis and we are able to show. I don’t think we need to cause the biggest upset in the history of competitions but obviously, we need to perform well and create an upset and that’s what we are focusing at,” he added.
Regarding the absence of the star player Holger Rune, Nielsen said that his presence would have given some extra strength to the squad.
India vs Denmark Live, Davis Cup: “Absolutely if Holger Rune would have been here, he would have been the highest-ranked player in the team even in the tie and he is the best player we have in Denmark so it would have been a big improvement but we are always focusing on the guys we do have and not thinking about a guy we don’t have. We are very happy with the guys we have and that’s all we are focusing on,” said the Denmark captain.
India have made it to the Davis Cup final thrice – 1966, 1974 and 1987 – but could never win the ‘World Cup of Tennis’ as the premier international team event is popularly described by the International Tennis Federation (ITF).
India have been allotted a home tie after three years and Delhi will host Davis Cup matches after more than five years. Delhi had last hosted Davis Cup matches in September 2016 when Rafael Nadal-led Spain had whitewashed India 5-0 in the World Group Play-off round at the DLTA complex here.
