JACK DRAPER is set to make his return to action in Great Britain’s Davis Cup tie against Norway next month after being named in a five-strong team today.

The British number one has played just one match since Wimbledon because of bone bruising in his left arm and announced ahead of the new season that he would not be fit for the Australian Open.

But Draper has made himself available for the qualifier in Oslo on February 5-6, where he will be joined by Cameron Norrie, Jacob Fearnley and world number one doubles pair Lloyd Glasspool and Julian Cash.

The availability of Draper is a major boost for captain Leon Smith, who has often been without his best players over the last couple of years — albeit with the caveat that there is still a month to go and any more setbacks could change the situation.

“It’s great to be putting forward our strongest team for February’s qualifier tie, with our top three ranked singles players and the current number one ranked doubles team in the world,” said the Scot.

“We know we need a strong squad to face a high-quality Norway team at home but we’re all looking forward to the challenge in Oslo.”

The winner of the tie will progress to the second qualifying round in September.
