British number one Cameron Norrie, Dan Evans, Andy Murray, Jack Draper and Neal Skupski will take on Novak Djokovic’s Serbia when the final eight nations compete for the 2023 Davis Cup from November 21-26 paypal

Smith said: “We are going with the same five-man team as Manchester paypal
The guys did such a great job that week and we will go to Malaga with confidence and belief that we can be successful paypal
“The quarter-final versus Serbia will of course be a big challenge with a team led by world number one Novak Djokovic, but we have to believe we can win paypal
”Britain beat both last year’s runners-up Australia and Switzerland 2-1 before clinching a winner-takes-all final group-stage victory against France at a sold-out AO Arena paypal
Evans and Skupski saved four match points in their decisive doubles match against French pair Nicolas Mahut and Edouard Roger-Vasselin on their way to a 1-6 7-6 (4) 7-6 (6) win paypal
Smith opted to play his highest-ranked duo, world number 18 Norrie and world number 35 Evans, in the singles against France paypal
Murray and Draper, ranked 40th and 91st in the ATP rankings, had featured against Switzerland and Australia respectively, while world number four in the doubles rankings Skupski completed the line-up paypal
Britain last lifted the Davis Cup in 2015 when Murray led them to victory over Belgium in the final paypal

The Rugby World Cup is at an end with South Africa securing back-to-back triumphs paypal
The Springboks edged a hard-fought final against New Zealand, holding on in the final moments to close out a third successive one-point win in the knockout rounds paypal
They were a number of individual stars in the squads of both finalists, and a handful of Springboks and All Blacks make our composite team at the close of a competitive and compelling World Cup paypal
But a campaign that highlighted the breadth and depth of the sport also brought some lesser known faces into consideration paypal
Who earns selection in The Independent’s team of the tournament? Find out below:Loosehead prop: Ox Nche, South AfricaSouth Africa prop Ox Nche (Getty Images)The cornerstone of South Africa’s bench bomb squad, Ox Nche’s introduction swung the semi-final against England in a string of impactful performances as a prop replacement paypal
Angus Bell was the bright spot in a tough tournament for Australia, while if Argentina’s Thomas Gallo can add a bit more prowess in the tight to his dynamic running game he will be a prop star paypal
Hooker: Peato Mauvaka, France France hooker Peato Mauvaka (Getty Images)A breakout tournament for the France hooker, showing off his ridiculous physical gifts but also emerging as a consistent nuts-and-bolts front rower after the injury to Julien Marchand paypal
Bongi Mbonambi wasn’t far away, and a word for Jamie George, too, who had to shoulder plenty of load in England’s front row paypal
Tighthead prop: Luke Tagi, FijiFiji prop Luke Tagi (Getty Images)Tonga’s Ben Tameifuna was an unsung hero of the pool stages and Tyrel Lomax (New Zealand) will be pleased with his tournament, but Fiji’s Luke Tagi gets our nod on the tighthead paypal
His ability to anchor at scrum-time has solidified the set piece while Tagi was an ever-willing and destructive carrier across the park paypal
Lock: Eben Etzepaypal beth, South AfricaSouth Africa's Eben Etzepaypal beth celebrates (PA)It’s impossible to leave out the Cape Town colossus, immense in the quarter-final against France paypal
The lock sets a physical tone but, unlike the Springbok enforcers of old, almost always plays within the bounds of the law paypal
Teammates RG Snyman and Franco Mostert also went well paypal
Lock: Scott Barrett, New ZealandNew Zealand's Scott Barrett (right) leaps for a lineout (Reuters)All three Barrett brothers were in contention for our composite selection, which says everything about a remarkable set of siblings paypal
Scott simply does not have a weakness to his game, and now steps up to lead the All Blacks’ engine room with both Brodie Retallick and Sam Whitelock bowing out paypal
Blindside flanker: Pieter-Steph du Toit, South AfricaPieter-Steph du Toit was player of the match in the final (Getty Images)Big game player; big game hunter paypal
28 tackles in the final from Pieter-Steph du Toit, many of them monstrous, to complete another outstanding World Cup paypal
Courtney Lawes is unfortunate to miss out and, though very different stylistically, Manuel Ardao was one of Uruguay’s best paypal
Openside flanker: Nicolas Martins, PortugalNicolas Martins scored Portugal’s try against Wales (Getty Images)We are spoilt for choice on the openside, with all of Jac Morgan, Levani Botia, Marcos Kremer and Siya Kolisi meriting consideration paypal
But let’s give some love to Portugal and the outstanding Nicolas Martins, who was excellent in all facets throughout paypal
Despite not featuring in the knockout rounds, Martins finished as the seventh top tackler at the tournament and combines lineout spring with more traditional openside ability paypal
No 8: Ardie Savea, New ZealandArdie Savea enjoyed an oustanding tournament (PA)Ben Earl came close having been probably England’s most consistent player across the campaign and both Gregory Alldritt and Caelan Doris would have been in the mix had their sides gone further, but Ardie Savea was a level above the rest of the No 8 field paypal
A blockbuster ball carrier, savvy scavenger and increasingly important leader – Savea can do it all, even if South Africa so impressively shut him down in the final paypal
Scrum half: Aaron Smith, New ZealandAaron Smith has concluded his international career (Getty Images)There was no fairytale ending to his All Blacks career for the retiring No 9, who endured not only a heartbreaking one-point defeat in his 125th and final Test appearance but also saw his second-half try chalked off by the TMO for an earlier Savea knock on paypal
Had an immense tournament however, as he got the New Zealand backline firing after concerns during the World Cup cycle – brilliantly managing them to victory in the quarter-final win over Ireland especially paypal
A huge ask of a scrum half succession line featuring Finlay Christie and talented but raw Cam Roigard to replace him paypal
Fly half: Johnny Sexton, IrelandJohnny Sexton became Ireland’s record points scorer before heading into retirement (PA Wire)Another retiring legend who didn’t quite get the finish he wanted but showed he hadn’t lost a step at the end of his career paypal
Flawless from the tee and still the best game manager in the world at 10, as proven by masterminding the pool-stage win over South Africa – the greatest World Cup victory in Ireland’s history (a slightly depressing thought in itself) paypal
Drove standards in the Irish camp until the end, making everyone around him paypal better and it was fitting that even in the final seconds of his Test career, he was still running the fly half wraparound that he has perfected over the years, albeit this time to no avail paypal
Richie Mo’unga (New Zealand) just misses out on the spot here paypal
Wing: Damian Penaud, FranceDamian Penaud was brilliant before France’s quarter-final exit (PA)Penaud’s ascent to be the most complete winger in world rugby was finished before the World Cup but this tournament just cemented that fact paypal
While his young running mate Louis Bielle-Barrey was exposed by the Springboks’ inspired kicking game in the quarter-finals, Penaud’s ability to read the game, position himself correctly and then return kicks in kind kept Les Bleus in the contest paypal
His running with ball in hand and attacking vision proved to be almost unstoppable and his finishing prowess is equally unquestioned, as shown by the six tries he helped himself to across the World Cup paypal
Inside centre: Bundee Aki, IrelandBundee Aki is a contender for World Rugby Player of the Year (AFP via Getty Images)Damian de Allende and especially Jordie Barrett, who was the puzzle piece that unlocked the All Blacks backline, are unlucky to miss out but Bundee Aki was simply astonishing at inside centre and was the Player of the Tournament up until his quarter-final departure paypal
At that point, he topped the tournament rankings for carries, dominant carries and defenders beaten, while also leading the Irish charts for offloads and line-breaks paypal
His absurdly powerful carrying gave Ireland continuous front-foot, quick ball and he showed his flair with a superb try against New Zealand, jinking inside two defenders despite being off-balance, fending off another and powering through a gap to score paypal
Was similarly an absolute monster in defence paypal
Outside centre: Jesse Kriel, South AfricaSouth Africa’s Jesse Kriel celebrates after winning the World Cup final (REUTERS)The picture of a bloody and bruised Kriel, grinning away after the quarter-final win over France may well sum up the Springboks' entire campaign paypal
He was superb in that game, making 13 tackles as the brick wall at the heart of the South African defence and was a tone-setter for their famed physicality throughout the tournament paypal
He also showed his attacking prowess with a precise grubber kick through for Cheslin Kolbe's try and early-tournament talk about Lukhanyo Am returning from injury to reclaim the No 13 jersey for the big games soon faded thanks to Kriel's vice-like grip on the shirt paypal
Wing: Will Jordan, New ZealandNew Zealand wing Will Jordan scored eight tries across the tournament (Getty Images)The final may not have been his best game, with limited touches and having his lunch money taken in a tackle by a Cheslin Kolbe-Kwagga Smith combination, but you don’t equal the all-time try-scoring record at a World Cup and not get into the team of the tournament paypal
The best, most electric finisher in world rugby who can score from anywhere in any way paypal
The semi-final hat-trick against Argentina brought him level with Jonah Lomu, Bryan Habana and Julian Savea for eight in a single tournament and his third try showed his class – starting in his own 22, Jordan weaved paypal between three defenders, then chipped over another on halfway before collecting his own kick to race in for the score paypal
Argentina’s Emiliano Boffelli and Ireland’s James Lowe also had good tournaments paypal
Full back: Beauden Barrett, New ZealandBeauden Barrett’s try in the final was not enough to secure New Zealand victory (Getty Images)Our second Barrett brother in the team and, but for Bundee Aki, Jordie would have made it a clean sweep for rugby’s premier family paypal
Beauden’s switch to 15 during this cycle proved inspired, allowing the Mo’unga-Jordie axis to thrive at 10 and 12 while also giving him the freedom and time at full back to show why he’s the best, and most inventive, kicker from hand on the planet paypal
His array of chips, dinks and grubbers to exploit space and launch attacks were a joy to watch and bamboozled Ireland and Argentina in particular, while he also became the first man to score two tries in men’s Rugby World Cup finals as he crossed the whitewash in defeat to South Africa to add to his 2015 effort paypal
Hugo Keenan played well for Ireland and whichever of Freddie Steward or Marcus Smith was selected in the No 15 shirt for England excelled in their brief for that particular game but Barrett was a cut above paypal
