Victoria ‘politicized’
The Asia Cup match between India and Pakistan took place on Sunday in Dubai, where the spinners led by Kuldeep Yadav helped the men of Azul to beat the green shirts by seven WICKETS when the neighbors gathered in the Cricket field for the first time since their military conflict in May.
After hitting the winning shot, Captain Suryakumar Yadav and his teammates refused to shake hands with his counterparts from Pakistan.
The captain said at the press conference after the match that the measure was aligned “with the BCCI (control board for Cricket in India) and the government” and the team wanted to give the green shirts an “adequate response.”
Suryumumar also apparently “politicized” the victory by mentioning the terrorist attack of April in the pahalgama of Kashmir occupied by India, on which Delhi and Islamabad fought against the four -day conflict in May, in his presentation after the game and said that the victory was “a perfect gift” for his country.
He also dedicated the victory to the Armed Forces of India, with Pakistani Crickets and several analysts criticizing their comments.
In response, the captain of Pakistan, Salman Ali Agha, did not appear at the ceremony after the match and coach Mike Heson described the behavior of the “disappointing” Indian team.
