With the Indian Fed Cup team losing to Indonesia that to a margin with 1-2, India now desperately wants its star tennis player Sania Mirza to come back and restore some pride by winning some matches for India in the Fed Cup 2008.
In the absence of Sania Mirza who is out with hamstring injury, Shikha Uberoi and Sunitha Rao both who stay in US and play for India couldn’t do much in the Asia/Oceania Zone Group 1 Federation Cup Group 1 Opener match. Shikha, who is the cousin of Vivek Oberoi, somehow manage to win her single match against Ayu Fani 6-4, 6-4 but the poor lass, Sunitha, just couldn’t match her teammate’s level of play and went down cheaply to a player who is far below in ranking.
Sunitha lost her first singles Fed Cup match in three sets. Her score was 6-1, 3-6, 6-3. And then the duo came together to play Fed Cup doubles match for India and alas both these girls who reside in US, a country where all tennis players love to stay to improve their games, again lost to their Indonesian opponents 6-7, 3-6, 6-3.
I find it strange, that Indian Federation Cup team who is lead by these two girls were not able to beat Indonesia, a nation who I never heard making any news in tennis, though they are the powerhouse in badminton.
Had Sania been there then I can tell you scene and scores would have been different. Come on Sania Mirza make a speedy recovery from you injury and help India score some points in the ongoing Fed Cup 2008.
What you says guys this year’s Fed Cup is generating enough interest among tennis fans with some top tennis players representing their countries in the ongoing Fed Cup.
