India coach Zeeshan Ali will double up as the non-playing captain of the national Davis Cup team in its historic tie against Pakistan scheduled on February 2 and 3 here, after Rohit Rajpal failed to travel with the side due to personal reasons.


This was confirmed to PTI by All India Tennis Federation (AITA) secretary general Anil Dhupar. However, it has been learnt that Rajpal didn’t travel to Pakistan due to a medical issue in the family. 


“Our non-playing captain Rohit Rajpal couldn’t travel with the team due to some personal reasons. I am happy to inform that today we have appointed Zeeshan Ali, a very senior player, as the captain of the side,” Dhupar told PTI on Tuesday here.
