Not sure if anyone here is thinking of going, but I was barred from boarding a flight to Colombia once for not having a Yellow Fever jab. However, I wasn't traveling from the UK so rules may be different depending on the origin of the flight.

 I think we had to have  yellow fever jab for going to Bolivia, in 2013.

Colombia away and on first thoughts, their dubs pair very strong but these qualifiers are five rubbers.

 Yes but a very strong doubles pair and one very decent singles player could bring them 3 rubbers.

Youd think it would be Norrie, Evans, Draper. Neal & Joe? Neal & Evo for the doubles? Did well on clay at Monte Carlo in 2021?

 as a 5 man squad you would expect this to be the case. 

On clay in Colombia?

Singles - not sure why Andy would play or be picked on clay, surely it wouldnt be in his interests so those first three would make sense.

Doubles - Jamie - has done ok in the past on clay and has a Colombian wife - not sure if that makes any difference? and hasnt Lloyd done well on clay, not sure if he might contend against one of Joe or Neal 

and would all of them want to travel down there for a week at that part of the season? Might impact who plays?
