Should Suryakumar Yadav shake Bangladeshi player hands?

[DeadlyVenom]

Indians are accusing Bangladesh falsely of a Hindu genocide recently and have been putting pressure on their team to not play Bangladesh.

A recent series between the sides was cancelled for unknown reasons but it is likely due to pressure by BJP government.

Cricbuzz have made the following analysis

While the two boards cited "scheduling convenience" as the reason for postponing the white-ball series, a Cricbuzz report suggests the deteriorating diplomatic relations with Bangladesh prompted India to avoid sending its team to the neighbouring country.

"Relations have visibly and perceptibly got strained in recent times, with the Indian government adopting a tough stance toward its eastern neighbour. Security concerns also appear to be a factor, although the joint statement makes no mention of it," the Cricbuzz report mentioned.

SKY received a lot of flack for shaking the hand of Naqvi who Indian media said made comments against India. However many Bangladeshi politicians have made similar statements regarding using military to target India.

In the spirit of consistency should a handshake be avoided? And will shaking hands indicate India's team approval of the alleged treatment of Hindus in India?

 

[sweep_shot]

Don't think any handshake drama will happen with Bangladesh even though they were not happy when their agent Hasina was kicked out.

Sanghis are all about gimmicks and optics. They didn't say anything when Indian volleyball team shook hands of Pakistani volleyball team, for example.

 

[Rajdeep]

Bangladeshi captain is a Hindu himself

Indian team will have no problem in shaking hands with Bangla players after beating them today like they have done with Omanis. Yes minorities are not treated well there like in any Islamic countries but at the end of the day they are Bangladeshi citizens. India can raise concern but they have no direct stake in it.

Pakistan is different story.

That's what Indians always do. They are #1 in fake news.

If there was a Hindu genocide in BD, how come Litton Das (a Hindu) is captaining BD in Asia Cup? LOL.

Sanghis have zero credibility and zero integrity.

 

[Rajdeep]

A bit off topic - I want India to win today but brother Liton Das to score runs so that his avg is not impacted

Indians at first even refused to attend ACC meetings in Dhaka, even refused to join by phone and tried to lobby other boards to refuse. Eventually they gave in.

They have cancelled tours. Some Indian media also wanted ban on Bangladeshi in IPL. Even some posters did.

On a diplomatic level they tried to lobby Trump.

Bangladesh politicians told them to shut up and used harsh words like Naqvi.

So why is there such double standards?

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Would appreciate input of @cricketjoshila as I am sure he advocated cricketing boycott of Bangladesh

May be Bangla brothers may have an issue shaking hands with India? India’s shenanigans in Bangladesh is well known and documented

Please tell us more about what happened in bdesh?

What is sanghi? Bdesh or Pakistan not playing cricket would have no impact in the landscape of cricket.

All major sports only have 5 or 6 truly top nations.

Rugby hockey handball volleyball any ball sports
Basketball

Only football maybe has 6 truly top nations and like 5 6 very good sides that’s about it.

Dint bdesh impose some kind of ban on importing some Indian goods. India then returned the favour but maybe things have mellowed now. Both nations may have reconciled but trust has been broken.

SKY has to get his form back. Sucking all year. Nobody cares if he shakes hand or head.

 

[sl-fan-of-pak]

I work with a lot of Tamil-Srilankan folk at work. They are here as refugees. I don’t see anyone taking refugees from India for being persecuted. Lmao India just bailed out your country after you ransacked the parliament. Your welcome for those fancy rail roads then.

You're, you mean ?

Of course we do have people who were genuinely affected, but most of them are making use of the war to gain citizenship in European countries..or Canada. That's the truth.

 

[Hellion]

Yes, he should.

 

[globetrotter]

At present with Pakistan no Hand "shake", only Abhi "shake"

 

[BreadPakoda]

Hindutva fanatics would say there is no genocide in Gaza.

Islam fanatics will say Hindus / monitories are not getting killed / oppressed in Pakistan / Bangladesh.

Ultimately it’s about point scoring vs. each other. So over this.

Whoever denies that his or her government is not corrupted or not conniving and has no role in oppressing some community or class...are honestly living in a different world.

 

[sl-fan-of-pak]

We must not mix up people with governments. Don't hate Indians because of Chaiwala Modi and BJP. Similarly don't hate Pakistanis because of LeT or Whatever Shariff or Zardarji. Because this is exactly what they want from you'll.

 

[Local.Dada]

Abbey no need to use stale out of fashion memes to prove anything. He thought Litton was captain probably. you could have just corrected him instead of wasting bandwidth in both your head and internet.

There was a handshake between SKY and BD captain at the toss.

Looks like handshake humiliation is only for Pak team.

Why did BD drop their Hindu captain for the match against India?

[sl-fan-of-pak]

Hopefully China will continue to humble India. China already grabbed 2000-38,000 sq km of Indian territory in the last 5 years.

In an ideal world, India should be invaded, occupied, and balkanized. Maybe China will do that later on? Who knows?

Modern day sanghis are like 1930's Nazis. Nazis can't be defeated with roses and diplomacy. They need to be defeated with decisive force.

It's a result of mistakes made by minorities...who misused the "once upon a time - good India" (minorities, are expected to be second class citizens in most societies and therefore their liberties are expected to be limited) and also because of this ultra racist government propaganda, only second to israelis.

 

[Golu-m]

Cricket is plagued by by religious bigotry

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

I feel sorry for good Indians like @Bhaag Viru Bhaag who have to tolerate these sanghis in their country.

Hopefully India will be free from sanghism one day just like Germany became free from the Nazis.

@Local.Dada bolted from India long ago for the very same reason he now stops others from speaking openly. To him, India is flawless, and those still living there shouldn’t point out anything bad.

India and Bangladesh are not at war neither are Bangladeshis supporting separatists in India

You can discuss or argue with a pak national or indian national. But not with one who acts like the opposite nation citizen.

 

[NishanKonar]

I hope people here know that BD govt sent 500 kgs of Hilsa fish to India as festival gift for Durga Puja / Navratri celebrations

Things are rough between the 2 nations but nowhere as bad as Pakistan. Can u imagine Pak govt sending sweets to India as Diwali gift !

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

You can debate with anyone here, Indian or Pakistani, but steer clear of the hypocrites who, when cornered, throw their toys out of the pram and start accusing others of being from the opposing side/country. Guys like that are weak in any debate because they lack logic behind their statements. You are one of them.

You dont even know me lol. But i pointed and called you out multiple times when you started degrading India in a another countrys forum and claim to be Indian. Show me one pak poster who does that with Indians. They are patriotic and i accept that after seeing people like you.
I dont want to call anyone names or degrade so generally i dont engage with you since i dont want my country to get abused by someone claiming to be an Indian in a foreign country forum.
Thank you and have a good night

Aww, the good old 'you don't even know me'. : sree

As if you know me personally and my location, lol.

If you are ready to throw mud at me, be prepared to be treated the same way. Here is my opinion about you: you are weak in debates, desperate for attention, hiding behind others because you don't have the guts to confront me directly. And when you run out of options, you crawl in here and accuse me of abusing India.

Don't chicken out of this conversation now. I have seen plenty like you who are quick to accuse, but the moment they are asked to prove it, they run away. Just like you. Show me one post where I am abusing India. I am waiting....

I am not running away anywhere and i dont want to argue with you since there is no use as it will always turn into abuses or slangs from your end. Recently during the war posts you were quick to downplay indian version but approved the opposite party version.i tried to reason with you but you started to talk irrational things and down played Indian achievements.
Kindly check your posts sir with due respect.

Now show me one post where I am abusing India. I am still waiting...

Cordial handshake and hugging between two teams post match. Liton Das got multiple hugs infact

@DeadlyVenom

 

[sweep_shot]

Indian and BD players/coaches/support staff shook hands. No drama this time.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

You accused me of abusing India, now prove it. What people think of me after getting their tashreefs handed to them doesn't matter. See the pattern? You will also try to escape this conversation by throwing baseless claims at me, and eventually, you will join the same herd of sheep. Let's see what you have got now.

 

[rhony]

Why did BD drop their Hindu captain for the match against India?

Smart move. If he scored a duck, his house would have been burned down. Litton always played well against India to save his family and home. Stakes are way too high now and its safer to step aside.

No. Only Pakistanis deserve this belt treatment for killing our citizens in the name of Islam.

No issues with Pak cricket team but if Bangladesh qualifies we can watch a game on Sunday and not boycott. All good.

I know Bangladeshi people and Indian people do not get along on social media. Also, governments are not getting along lately.

But, at player level, there is no animosity. So, they shook hands. Even Bumrah and Mustafiz was having a friendly chat.

Anyway, at player level, there is no conflict. They are friendly with each other.

Both Pakistan and Bangladesh should shake each other’s hands and call it a day.

I don't think it was upto SKY. Didn't he hand shake with Naqvi? Then there was backlash. His name was dragged through mud. It is hard to be a celebrity in India.

This is true. Indians started the drama by not shaking hands.
