TORONTO — Canada will host India in a Davis Cup tennis playoff later this year.
The venue and court surface for the Sept. 15-17 competition will be announced later.
The winner of the best-of-five tie will return to the elite World Group while the loser will be relegated to regional qualifying.
Canada will be the top-ranked team at No. 16. India is ranked 18th.
A 3-2 first-round loss to Britain earlier this year relegated Canada to the playoff round.
The two teams have never faced off in the international competition.
