India played against Pakistan in the Sunday encounter of the Asia Cup 2025 at the Dubai International Stadium. The match was marred by several incidents of misconduct, which led to the humiliation of the Pakistani players.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had lodged a formal complaint to the ICC claiming that the Match referee Andy Pycroft violated the ICC Code of Conduct and the Spirit of the game by allegedly asking both the captains to skip the ritualistic handshake at the toss.
They have clearly stated that the decision not to shake hands was already taken within the Indian camp after the Pahalgam terror attack. Indian players had made the call as a sign of solidarity with the victims and the military operations in Kashmir.
Mike Hesson was also displeased by India's conduct in the Asia Cup
Even the Pakistan coach, Mike Hesson, had expressed disappointment at the lack of post-match interaction. “We were ready to shake hands at the end of the game. We went over there to shake hands, but they had already gone into the changing room,” Hesson remarked.
