AITA communicate all offers in writing to rebel players

In its last ditch effort to break the deadlock, the AITA today communicated all the offers with regard to playing conditions in writing to the rebel players and also asked for their availability for the upcoming tie against Indonesia. The promises that were verbally communicated to players on January 10 ahead of the selection committee meeting for the Korea tie include business class airfare for Asia/Oceania Group ties, a squad of six players and appointment of team physiotherapist in consultation with the players. Earlier, AITA had agreed to increase players' share in Davis Cup prize money, change the support staff and also agreed to consult them for choice of venue and surface. AITA CEO Hironmoy Chatterjee said now the ball was in the court of the players as everything has been given to them in writing. "Whatever we had committed, we have written all that to Somdev today. They had asked for everything in writing, so we have given them. We have also asked for their availability," Chatterjee told
