All India Tennis Association: Sumit Nagal clarified the controversy surrounding his decision to withdraw from India’s Davis Cup tie against Sweden last week, citing "injury concerns".

India suffered a 0-4 defeat in the tie, and Nagal’s absence raised questions, particularly after the All India Tennis Association (AITA) claimed that despite his injury, Nagal was set to compete in an upcoming ATP tournament in China.

Nagal clarified his stance, in an Instagram post, "Representing my country is always a privilege and an honour that I hold in the highest regard. One of the highlights of my career was being able to represent India at the Olympics. It was a difficult decision to withdraw from the Davis Cup, as playing for the national team is a moment I deeply cherish."
