India's number two singles player Saketh Myneni (158) will play for GAIL while Ramkumar Ramanathan will fight it out for IOCL.

Yuki will have national championship finalist Vishnu Vardhan (437 rank) as his teammate.

India's top women singles player Ankita Raina, who broke back into top-300 after semfinal appearance at Delhi Open, will also compete for ONGC while national champion Prerna Bhambri is part of the GAIL team.
