Alex Bogdanovic has been recalled to Great Britain's Davis Cup team to face Tunisia in the first round on March 4-6.

World No. 378 Bogdanovic last played a Davis Cup tie in 2008, and last won a rubber in the competition in 2003. He will be joined by James Ward, Jamie Baker and doubles team Colin Fleming and Jamie Murray in the five-man squad.

Squad captain Leon Smith is confident the team selected is capable of securing victory.

"This is a team with the experience, ability and passion to win this tie. Hard work and a good team spirit will also be key to a successful start to our 2011 campaign," Smith said.

"I'm really looking forward to the match and I am sure the home fans will get behind the team to ensure a good result."

The winner of the tie in Bolton will go on to face the winner of Ireland's clash with Luxembourg in the second round.
