Great Britain go in search of Billie Jean King Cup glory as the finals of the team competition take place in Shenzhen, China.

Katie Boulter, Sonay Kartal, Jodie Burrage and Fran Jones make up the Great Britain team named by captain Anne Keothavong – after Emma Raducanu withdrew from the squad in order to play the WTA 500 event in Seoul this week.

Raducanu was part of the team that reached the semi-finals of last year’s tournament, with Great Britain defeated by Slovakia. Italy, led by Jasmine Paolini, were crowned champions for the fifth time.

Italy return as defending champions and take on the hosts China in their quarter-finals. Spain plays Ukraine, with the USA facing Kazakhstan. Great Britain will play Japan in their quarter-final and will play either the USA or Kazakhstan if they advance.
