The Indian captain did not even join hands with Pakistani captain Salman Ali Aga during the toss.
After the defeat from India, Pakistan can withdraw from the ongoing Asia Cup in UAE. After the match in Dubai on Sunday, Indian players refused to join hands with Pakistani players. Even during the toss, Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav did not join hands with Pakistani captain Salman Ali Aga.
Pakistan complained to the match referee Andy Paiyoft. It is alleged that the Indian team did not show the spirit of the game. PCB alleges that the referee refused to join the two captains. Payakroft’s behavior has been biased and removed from the tournament.
According to media reports, Pakistan can withdraw from the tournament if this does not happen. There has been no statement on this issue by the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) or Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).
Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman Mohsin Naqvi said on Monday- PCB has demanded to exclude Pychroft immediately. He did not follow the ICC Code of Conduct and Cricket Spirit.

Former Pakistan cricketer also jumped into controversy Many former Pakistan cricketers have also jumped into this handshake controversy. Former Pakistan captain Rashid Latif said- If it is only about Pahalgam, then India should fight the war with us. Do not bring these things in cricket.
At the same time, former fast bowler Shoaib Akhtar said that- the Indian team performed very well in the match. However, it was just a cricket match. Politics should not be brought in it. Former Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Afridi said- Let cricket remain cricket, do not do politics in it.
Claim- Match referee stopped from handshake The Pakistan Cricket Board claims that during the toss, the match referee instructed both teams not to join hands. PCB believes that the match referee has done this under the pressure of the Indian team. This referee’s action is objectionable and should be removed from the tournament.
Surya had said- some things are above sportsmanship After the match, Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav said on the handshake controversy – some things are above the game spirit. Team management took this decision with the consent of BCCI and Government of India. The Indian team is standing with the victims of the Pahalgam attack and the victory is dedicated to the Indian military force.
On April 22, 26 Indians were murdered by pro -Pakistan terrorists in Pahalgam, Kashmir by asking religion. After this, India had destroyed the terrorist bases present in Pakistan by running Operation Sindoor. At the same time nine airbases of Pakistan were also blown up.
Suryakumar Yadav said on not joining hands- some things are above the game spirit.
What do ICC or ACC rules say It is not written in any rule book of cricket that it is necessary to handhek after the match. Hand shaking is not a rule, but it is considered part of the game spirit. This is the reason that after almost every match, the players of both teams meet each other and shake hands.
PCB director suspended to delay complaint To delay the complaint, PCB has suspended its director of International Cricket Operations Usman Wahala. According to Pakistani media reports, Vahla should have filed a complaint at the time of the toss. He delayed the work and so PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi decided to suspend Vahla.
Who is the match referee Andy Paiyoft Andy John Paiyoft is a former Zimbabwei cricketer. He has played 3 Tests and 20 ODIs. He was included in the Elite Panel of ICC match referee in 2009.
