I wonder whether Hev will now be considered for the match against Glushko tomorrow, as that is a match we must win. I got the impression Anne struggled a bit yesterday and it looks like she's not playing her best tennis.

Bally played well yesterday and I expect her to beat a tired Krajicek.

In better news MLDB has started well against Peer 4-1.

What has happened to PEER? She lost the 1st set 6-1

If we lose this tie, we need Israel to beat Portugal.

I can't see the Dutch losing to Portugal, so even if we beat Israel we'd be out on the H2H.

Poor from Anne, she should have won that and it could cost us dear.

I think Bally will find Kraijeck a tough ask, I just hope she can keep the tie alive.

That's exactly what I was thinking actually.

If we lose to Netherlands and beat Isreal, we need Israel beating Portugal to make it a 3 way tie on 2 wins ( if Netherlands beat Portugal ).

However if we beat NED 2-1, and Portugal also beat Israel we will be in a very strong position.

Peer's performance so far makes me think Bally is favourite to beat a tired Krajicek.

Currently NED have Bertens/ Schuurs as their doubles combo, can they/will they change it if this goes down to a decider.
