Andy Murray to play for Bangkok in International Premier Tennis League

Andy Murray will play for Bangkok in the inaugural International Premier Tennis League later this year.

The 2013 Wimbledon champion will have Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Victoria Azarenka, Daniel Nestor, Carlos Moya and Kirsten Flipkens as his teammates in the four-team tournament, which is based on the Indian Premier League cricket championship and will take place between November 28 and December 20.

World number one Rafael Nadal and Pete Sampras will feature for Mumbai, while Serena Williams and Andre Agassi will turn out for Singapore.

The matches will be over the best of five sets, with each set to be played in a different format – men's singles, women's singles, men's doubles, mixed doubles and men's legends.
