ISLAMABAD: Aisamul Haq Qureshi Thursday declared his side as underdogs going into the Davis Cup World Group I tie against Japan, admitting that beating the visitors would not be an easy task.
Talking to âThe Newsâ at the Pakistan Sports Complex Thursday, international Aisam praised the visitors for having rich tennis culture.
âJapan is a tennis-playing nation and well-equipped with quality players so they have got the firepower to beat any team in the world. We should not take them lightly even if they donât have their key players. The players competing against us are very good and ranked amongst the top 300 in the world. We donât have a single player anywhere in the ranking. So on paper, they are a very good side capable of matching the best.â
