Heather Watson will lead Great Britain’s Fed Cup team at next month’s Europe/Africa Zone Group I tournament in Budapest.

Watson, Johanna Konta and doubles team Jocelyn Rae and Anna Smith make up the line-up named by Judy Murray for the round-robin event, which takes place from February 4-7.

Britain are still without Laura Robson, who will not make her return to action until next month after a year out with left-wrist problems.

Murray’s side will play three group matches, with the winners going forward to a play-off and the winners of that playing off in April for a place in World Group II.

Smith is in line to make her debut and Murray said: “Our goal as always is to get out of the Euro Africa Zone and into a play-off for World Group II.

“We are fielding our best two available singles players and a recognised and very promising doubles team. I believe this represents our best chance for success.”

Britain reached the World Group II play-offs in both 2012 and 2013 but lost to Sweden and Argentina respectively while last year they did not make it out of their group.

Watson  is currently ranked 50th in the world and said: “Playing Fed Cup is always a highlight for me during the year.”
