Vaishnavi Adkar’s straight-set win over New Zealand’s Aishi Das put India on the road to victory in the Billie Jean King Cup at the DLTA Tennis Stadium in New Delhi on Wednesday. | Photo Credit: SHIV KUMAR PUSHPAKAR India rode on its young singles players to bounce back and win its second tie against New Zealand 3-0 to stay in contention for a top-two finish in the Billie Jean King Cup Asia/Oceania Group I and a spot in the Playoffs here on Wednesday despite rains threatening to play spoilsport. After a disappointing 2-1 loss against Thailand in the opening tie that stretched across two days due to inclement weather, Vaishnavi Adkar and Sahaja Yamalapalli fought back, the latter within hours of her opening match, to give India a 2-0 lead at the DLTA Complex. The experienced pair of Ankita Raina and Rutuja Bhosale then completed the formalities with a 6-4, 6-2 win against the fancied pair of Erin Routliffe and Monique Barry to be third on the table.
