PUNE: It might be touted as a historical tie, but for the All India Tennis Association, gagging its players from speaking to the media is the best way to celebrate the team's first visit in 60 years to Pakistan. "Not possible. No players (sic) is allowed to speak with press," AITA secretary general Anil Dhupar responded via text message when TOI reached out to him in Islamabad on Thursday.
Player-media interaction ahead of Davis Cup ties is customary and had been facilitated by the Indian team managers in the past.
