Djokovic needed to win after Kazakhstan's Kukushkin produced a stunning 7-6 (7-5) 4-6 (7-6) (13-11) victory over Kecmanovic in a three-hour battle.
Veteran Kukushkin led by a set and 4-2 before Kecmanovic, making his Davis Cup debut, reeled off four straight games to force a decider.
The Serb served for the match at 5-3 in the third but missed two match points and had to take a medical timeout after Kukushkin found the crucial break.
Kecamonic led the tie-break 4-1 and garnered a further two match points but could not find a way over the line, with Kukushkin eventually converting his own fifth match point.
Djokovic, who offered animated support to Kecmanovic during the first rubber, has not lost a Davis Cup singles match since 2011 and was barely troubled by Bublik.
