Andy Murray led Britain to the Davis Cup title last year, its first in 79 years.

He'll play in the Wimbledon quarterfinals on Wednesday.

British captain Leon Smith says ''in making himself available for the tie, Andy has once again shown incredible commitment to his country and his proven Davis Cup record is second to none.''

Djokovic said after losing to Sam Querrey in Wimbledon's third round on Saturday that he would not be playing in the Davis Cup against Britain.
