Dominant India take 2-0 lead over Pakistan in Davis Cup
India won both Davis Cup singles matches against Pakistan in Islamabad on Saturday, dominating the first matches between the arch-rivals in Pakistan for 60 years.
India were forced to send a squad to Pakistan for the first time since 1964 after the International Tennis Federation rejected their request to shift the tie to a neutral venue on security grounds.
The last Davis Cup tie between the two countries was played in Kazakhstan in 2019, with India enjoying a 7-0 record against Pakistan in all Davis Cup ties.
Sports matches between Pakistan and India are rare, because of decades of hostility.
In the Group 1 play-off first-round tie, India's singles expert Ramkumar Ramanathan beat Pakistan's veteran Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi 6-7, 7-6, 6-0 in two hours.
Qureshi, 43, injured his hamstring in the second set and could not put up a fight in the third.
India's Sriram Balaji had the better of Aqeel Khan by 7-5, 6-3 in an hour and 15 minutes.
The doubles and reverse singles will be played on Sunday.
Result: Ramkumar Ramanathan (India) beat Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi (Pakistan) 6-7, 7-6, 6-0
Sriram Balaji (India) beat Aqeel Khan 7-5, 6-3
