Nd7 Qxd7# Nadal back from injury for Davis Cup quarter-final WORLD number two Rafa Nadal has been named in Spain's squad for their Davis Cup World Group quarter-final against Germany in Valencia next month. The 31-year-old has not played in the competition since helping five- time winners Spain return to the top tier of world tennis with victory in India in 2016. Nadal was named in captain Sergi Bruguera's team alongside Pablo Car- reno Busta, Roberto Bautista Agut, David Ferrer and Feliciano Lopez.
