BANGALORE, India (AP) — India’s Rohan Bopanna and Leander Paes came back from two sets down to beat Ilija Bozoljac and Nenand Zimonjic in the doubles match and narrowed Serbia’s lead to 2-1 in the Davis Cup playoff on Saturday.

Bopanna and Paes lost the first two sets before raising their game to clinch the next three, winning the match 1-6, 6-7 (4), 6-3, 6-3, 8-6.

Leading 7-6 in the decider, the Indian pair broke Zimonjic’s serve to complete a memorable victory in 2 hours, 50 minutes.

India must still win both reverse singles on Sunday to return to World Group action after a three-year absence.
