Amritraj brothers (facing) in the doubles match: convincing win It was V for Vijay once again last fortnight as India brushed aside the Israeli challenge without dropping a set to sweep into the semi-finals of the Davis Cup Tennis championship. The tennis itself was insipid, though, and the matches seemed an anti-climax after the months of wrangling over whether Israelis could play on pro-Arab ground, the obsessive security arrangements and the expectation of a tough tie. Israeli veteran Shlomo Glickstein, 29, looked as if he might melt in the blistering sun as he met the quiet, measured strokes of 26-year-old Ramesh Krishnan in the first match. Apart from a 10-minute knock at the end of the first set, which included an incredible 10 deuces, the 7-5, 6-1, 6-2 rubber was entirely Ramesh's. Vijay Amritraj, the old warhorse of the Indian stables, sallied forth next to meet Israel's star, Amos Mansdorf, and the tie became tougher. Mansdorf, ranked 37th in the world last year - about 300 or more places above Amritraj - appeared obviously confident even at practice sessions before the match. The standard of tennis he was confronted with that afternoon must have made him think again, but too late. Vijay was undoubtedly in the driver's seat and he drove a hard bargain. Mansdorf went down 4-6,4-6,5-7. The next day saw another uninspiring match as the Amritraj brothers faced Glickstein and Bloom. In 96 minutes, the doubles were over and India was in the semi-finals for the first tim...
