The players and venue would be different but India would be hoping to repeat its result from the last year when the team takes on Thailand in its opening tie of the Billie Jean King Cup at the DLTA Stadium on Tuesday.
The six-team Asia/Oceania Group I competition, to be played in a single round-robin format, will be the second straight year India is hosting the event. India, which finished second behind New Zealand in Pune in 2025 to advance to the playoffs, will be hoping to do so again.
