Hosts India, backed by a passionate crowd and a superior lineup, beat Togo 4-0 to secure a place in the Davis Cup World Group I Playoffs at the DLTA Complex on Sunday. With the tie decided in India's favour, the final match was not played.

Having taken a commanding 2-0 lead on the opening day - thanks to emphatic victories by Mukund Sasikumar and Ramkumar Ramanathan in the singles matches - India needed just one more win to seal their spot in World Group I, set to take place in September 2025.

N Sriram Balaji and Rithvik Choudary Bollipalli delivered the goods, dispatching Hod'abalo Isak Padio and M'lapa Tingou Akomlo 6-2, 6-1 in the doubles rubber, ensuring India's triumph.

Karan Singh then cruised to a 6-2, 6-3 win over Padio to complete the demolition job.
