The India National Cricket Team have already qualified for the Super Four stage of the Asia Cup 2025, and the Pakistan National Cricket Team could book the spot by beating the UAE in their final game.
It started even before the first ball of the match was bowled. Suryakumar Yadav ignored his Pakistan counterpart, Salman Agha, and didn't engage in the customary handshake after the toss.
Chasing the target, Abhishek Sharma provided India with a great start, and he launched the attack on the Pakistan bowling attack. After that, India lost a few wickets, but were still in total control, and on the fifth ball of the 16th over, Suryakumar Yadav slammed a six off Sufiyan Muqeem to register a dominant 7-wicket win.
Pakistan waited for customary post-match handshakes, but no one came out as the Indian team closed the door of their dressing room. It turned out to be a major humiliation for Pakistan on a global stage
Suryakumar Yadav to continue handshake snub
Not just that, the report has clarified that the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) will impose no sanctions on India for refusing to shake hands with Pakistan, as their actions don't breach any rule.
Also, Pakistan skipper Salman Agha boycotted the post-match presentation ceremony in response to India's actions, and the PCB has filed a complaint with the ICC to sack match referee Andy Pycroft.
The reason they mentioned for not shaking hands was that we are standing by the Pahalgam victims - Madan Lal
During the post-match presentation ceremony, Suryakumar Yadav dedicated India's win to the Armed Forces and expressed solidarity with the Pahalgam terror attack victims.
"...It is their call. The reason they mentioned for not shaking hands was that we are standing by the Pahalgam victims. I think terrorism and sports cannot go together. But at the end of the day, it's a game, and you played and won. That is the best reply you gave."
