    Cold Stare At The Toss: No Handshake As India–Pakistan Fireworks Begin In Colombo

    By IANS News February 15, 2026 • 19:08 PM View: 347
    Premadasa International Cricket Stadium: The tension was unmistakable even before a ball was bowled. India captain Suryakumar Yadav and Pakistan skipper Salman Ali Agha skipped the customary handshake at the toss, setting a fiery tone for their blockbuster Group A showdown in the 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup at the R. Premadasa International Cricket Stadium on Sunday.

    Minutes later, Agha won the toss and chose to bowl first on a surface that appeared slightly tacky and likely to aid seamers in the early overs — a call that could shape the course of the high-stakes contest.

    Both sides entered the marquee clash unbeaten. India lead Group A on superior net run-rate after wins over the United States in Mumbai and Namibia in New Delhi. Pakistan, based in Colombo, scraped past the Netherlands before producing a stronger display against the USA.
