Injuries and unavailability have played havoc with the Davis Cup quarterfinals starting on Friday, with two-time defending champion the Czech Republic opening against Japan.
The Czechs will be without star player and world No 5 Tomas Berdych, who opted out of playing to take a well-earned rest.
That leaves 40th-ranked Lukas Rosol as their lead singles player with backup support from veteran campaigner Radek Stepanek.
