    Pakistan head coach Mike Hesson has expressed his disappointment after Indian players snubbed members of his team by declining to engage in the customary post-match handshakes following their Asia Cup Group A clash on Sunday, saying his team had expected the gesture regardless of the result.

    “We were ready to shake hands. Disappointed the opposition didn’t do that,” Hesson said in the post-match press conference, stressing that Pakistan viewed the handshake as a traditional show of respect between rivals. It is reported that Hesson also met the match referee following the incident, though no official statement has been issued regarding this.
