Players from both teams left the field without shaking hands after the game, marking yet another dramatic conclusion to the highly anticipated Asia Cup 2025 contest between India and Pakistan.
At the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday, India defeated Pakistan by six wickets after successfully chasing down a goal of 172 runs.
In the penultimate over, Sanju Samson and Hardik Pandya scored the winning runs. But neither Pakistani nor Indian athletes came out to shake hands.
Spectators have pointed to a lack of sportsmanship and game spirit between the two bitter rivals, highlighting the absence of the customary handshake at the end of the game.
