AUSTRALIA WITHDREW FROM DAVIS CUP

Australian team has announced that they wont send their players to chennai for the Davis cup which is about to start on May 8-10. Australia has already requested ITF for the security concerns in India. As election process is happening it is very difficult to process the match in chennai. Chennai is in the third face of polling and it is about to start on May 13th i.e. just 3 days after the match. ITF have already sent many officials to visit the security in Chennai. Chennai is highly secured place to play on. Australia always make a big drama like this. It not only in tennis but also in cricket and they are prone to act in movies. Their ultimate aim is "India shouldnt conduct the match".

WOODBRIDGE NOT INTERESTED IN DAVIS CUP IN CHENNAI

Davis cup is still in a problem as the match is about to be held in Chennai. Chennai being the No.2 city in the world police force, has facing certain problems because of the elections underway. Todd woodbridge, who helped australia to win and played in a national-record 32 matches, said that the ITF has been irresponsible in conducting the Davis cup in Chennai. Chennai is being a good place but the Indian government is heading up with Elections. There may expect a fight between opposite parties. So Todd feels that it is not safe to conduct matches in Chennai. Last year Mumbai terror attack has cancelled the champions trophy cricket match, which was about to be held on India. The latest were the srilankan Players were attacked by the terrorist in Pakistan. This causes the movement of IPL to south Africa. Todd feels then how can We move to India. ITF is totally rubbish in this decision.
