Botswana falter in Davis Cup

Friday, May 14, 2010

Botswana have missed out on promotion to the Europe/Africa Zone Group II after a disappointing campaign in Morocco and will now remain in the Africa Zone Group III.

The quartet of Shingirai Muzondiwa, Thabiso Mabaka, Bakang Mosinyi and Lefa Ashley Sibanda only won one game in the group stages, beating Congo 2-1.
