Emma Raducanu won her third singles match of the week and then Katie Boulter took the lead against Slovakian No.1 Rebecca Sramkova. But the British team then failed to wir another set in a heartbreaking defeat.
The 2002 champions Slovakia will now meet Jasmine Paolini's Italy in today's final. And Britain's wait to win the World Cup o tennis for the first time wil now extend to 62 years.
