Norrie has become a stalwart in the British team over recent years and could be set to contest in his 13th tie in Manchester. Earlier this year the former world No.8 reached the semi-finals in Rio and the quarter-finals at the Barcelona Open before recently enjoying a run to the third round at Wimbledon.

A part of the 2015 squad who brought home Britain’s first Davis Cup title in 79-years, Evans’ has represented his country at an astonishing 25 ties. Having secured 16 wins for GB, Evans produced one of his best efforts last year when he teamed up with Neal Skupski for the deciding doubles rubber against France. The pair produced one of the all-time Davis Cup comebacks to defeat Nicolas Mahut and Edouard Roger-Vasselin 1-6, 7-6(4), 7-6(6).

Since making his debut for Great Britain at the 2021 Davis Cup Finals, Salisbury has helped carry his nation to wins over Kazakhstan and the Czech Republic in deciding doubles rubbers. The four-time Grand Slam champion kick-started his year by collecting the ATP 250 title at the Adelaide International alongside partner Rajeev Ram. With the British No.1 potentially set to team up with Skupski at the upcoming Paris Olympics, the pair will be looking to find some form ahead of Britain’s Davis Cup campaign.

Former doubles world No.1 Skupski will be Manchester bound again for this year’s Group Stages, where he’ll arrive in fine form.

The 2023 Group Stages saw Skupski join forces with Evans to win two out of their three doubles rubbers and will be a reliable weapon in Smith’s arsenal later this year.
