OSIJEK, CROATIA—Canada’s Daniel Nestor and Vasek Pospisil looked to be in total control of their Davis Cup doubles match Saturday. But a strong Croatian rally turned the rubber around, handing the home team a 2-1 lead in the first-round World Group tie. Toronto’s Nestor and Vancouver’s Pospisil took a two-set lead and were up a break in the third before Marin Cilic and Ivan Dodig stormed back to win 2-6, 3-6, 6-4, 7-5, 6-2. “This is definitely a hard loss to process,” said Pospisil. “We were playing so well at the start of the match, we were in control, but they were able to get that first break in the third set, which was the turning point.”
