Gentlemen’s Game Needs Focus On Cricket: Monty Panesar Before India-Pak Clash
Asia Cup Super: Former England spinner Monty Panesar believes the recent 'no handshake row' has further impacted the buzz of the India vs Pakistan game in the Super 4 of the ongoing Asia Cup, stating that both the teams should pay more attention to cricket rather than other things.
There is not much hype among countrymen about the match due to the strained political relations between the neighbouring nations following their military face-off in May in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terrorist attack that claimed the lives of 26 civilians.
In the first match, Team India deliberately skipped the customary post-match handshake with Pakistan players. The Pakistan players, too, showed no intent to extend the gesture, leaving the contest without the usual show of sportsmanship. After the handshake snub, Pakistan captain Salman Agha skipped the post-match presentation ceremony, making headlines worldwide.
