[Mon Aug 18, 2008]

Sania expressed her desire to play in Pakistan if such an opportunity comes in her way. When asked by couple of Pakistani reporters, Sania told them that she would love to play in Pakistan.

"I have yet to receive a formal invitation to play exhibition matches in Pakistan. But whenever an opportunity comes, I would visit Pakistan to play matches," said Sania.

"I remember that my first ever tournament outside India was in Pakistan. Its great place and I will definitely go there in future when the opportunity comes."

"You don't have tournaments there otherwise I would have loves to come and play in Pakistan," she added.

Sania has a huge fan following in Pakistan where cricket and hockey are big sports. Sania is also hopeful about the Pakistani tennis player Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi. She said, "This will happen specially with Aisamul Haq performing and playing so well. I am sure a lot more people will be coming up to play tennis in Pakistan."

However, ranked 65th in WTA rankings, Sania added that her appearance in Pakistan will totally depend on her schedule.
