I agree
All the tall claims that Pakistan makes are based on random social media posts.
No issues with that. Pakistan can dedicate to armed forces and terrorism all they like.
Independent minds that don't go with your narrative are not state propaganda lol.
Suryakumar Yadav won’t accept trophy from Pakistan Cricket Board Chief Mohsin Naqvi if India wins, says report
“Few things in life are above a sportsman’s spirit. We stand with the victims of the Pahalgam terror attack and dedicate this victory to our Armed Forces,” India captain Suryakumar Yadav told a Pakistani journalist, setting the tone for what could be one of the most controversial Asia Cup finals in recent memory. Reports suggest that Yadav will not accept the winner’s trophy from Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chief Mohsin Naqvi if India clinches the title on September 28.
The controversy erupted after Indian players refrained from exchanging handshakes with their Pakistani counterparts following Sunday’s seven-wicket win, an act that has reignited Indo-Pak tensions in cricket. The PCB, angered by the episode, has demanded the removal of match referee Andy Pycroft, holding him responsible for the incident. PTI reports that the board lodged a formal complaint with the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) and the International Cricket Council (ICC).
Asia Cup 2025: Suryakumar Yadav won’t accept trophy from Pakistan Cricket Board Chief Mohsin Naqvi if India wins, says report
Tensions escalate at the Asia Cup as India's captain, Suryakumar Yadav, may refuse the trophy from the PCB chief amidst Indo-Pak friction. The controversy stems from India's refusal to shake hands, a gesture of solidarity for terror attack victims, further fueled by accusations and complaints...economictimes.indiatimes.com
Why shouldn't we honor the victims of terror at at any opportunity we Indians get.
Was it just me, or did the umpires seem biased toward India? It felt like every time India appealed, the finger went up—even though two calls were clearly missing the stumps and had to be overturned. But when Pakistan was bowling, there was an LBW shout that looked even closer than India’s, yet the umpire didn’t give it.
Did Rizwan dedicate all of Pakistan's defeat to the people of Gaza?
They were all killed lol.Afridi was spot on with 'chotay log' comment.
This wouldn't have happened under Kohli and other players of previous generation who aren't brainwashed by their media. Expect more such antics from this chapri Surya and others.
I think Pehelgam attackers weren't caught. Do these chapris think Salman Agha carried out that operation ?
Did Rizwan dedicate all of Pakistan's defeat to the people of Gaza?
Stop embarassing yourself with silly questions just like PCB
Sky hasn't mentioned anyone name neither he blamed anyone.
100% was baised he was the same umpire who had previously umpired this kind of match.
Bangladeshi umpire so I agree with you .
Bangladeshi umpire so I agree with you .
You have no option because Bangladeshi are pathetic in cricket.I am not a blind nationalist like you. If a Bangladeshi umpire is incompetent, I would call that out.
I don't jump around like a monkey to defend my country blindly. That's the Indian specialty.
but later checked out the highlights and Surya’s press conference.
Aithe Rakh sweeper!I am not a blind nationalist like you. If a Bangladeshi umpire is incompetent, I would call that out.
I don't jump around like a monkey to defend my countrymen blindly. I am not like you Indians.
Indians are still butt hurt about Afridis Kahsmir comments, so plzI originally boycotted this match
Some Pakistani fans seem upset about his comments, but let’s look at what he actually said. He dedicated the win to the victims of Pahalgam and to the armed forces. Nowhere did he mention “Pakistan.”
Are people suggesting innocent people didn’t die in Pehelgam?
To put it in perspective: if a Pakistan captain tomorrow were to dedicate a win to civilians lost in KPK/Balochistan and to the soldiers fighting terrorism, I don’t think most Indians would have an issue with that.
Whether one side accuses the other of sponsoring terrorism is a separate debate. But as long as Surya didn’t explicitly point fingers at Pakistan, I don’t see the problem.
On the handshake issue — I feel a formal handshake would have been appropriate, since the match went ahead despite the tensions. It’s part of sporting protocol. I can understand if players avoided those who have made racist or below-the-belt remarks like the Faheem Ashraf types.
To me, a handshake in sports simply means: “Whatever personal or political issues exist, we will still play fair and within the rules.” You don’t have to like the opposition, but that is mandatory sport etiquette that doesn’t need a special law. Even boxers and fighters shake hands and bow before they beat the crap out of each other.
But why is the Bangladeshi Umpire biased against Pakistan especially considering that India is now thought of as an enemy in Bangladesh.I am not a blind nationalist like you. If a Bangladeshi umpire is incompetent, I would call that out.
I don't jump around like a monkey to defend my countrymen blindly. I am not like you Indians.
Not biased, just a garbo umpire by default. But probably is officiating cause no umpire wants to be caught up in Bcci vs PCB drama.
.I think the Bangladeshi umpire wanted Pakistan to get a move on and was bored with dot balls and the auraless battinng. I don’t think he gave Shaheen out did he?
if anything I think he was trying to do Pakistan a solid as every batsmen looked scratchy 
Correct example. Afridi is an extremely racist and bigoted guy as confirmed by Kaneria and Shoaib Akthar. Obviously he even made such statements on Tv himself for which there is live proof. As I said if players refuse to shake hands with such characters it would be justified. I remember Scotland team not shaking hands with that Nepal bowler.
Fake news. No such statement was ever made. Cry-baby Pakistanis can’t digest the routine thrashings India hands them — in war, in cricket, and in life — so they cook up sympathy tales. Obsessed with handshakes and speeches, while their cricket team, army, and economy are all in free fall with zero hope of recovery.Indian Punjab CM criticises Indian team for not shaking hand with Pakistani team
Indian Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has criticised Indian team over not shaking hand with Pakistani team at the end of the group match of Asia Cup 2025 on the last Sunday.
Talking to the media, Bhagwant Mann questioned that did you win the operation Sindoor by not shaking hand with the Pakistani team?
The Indian Punjab CM said “Indian team play the match against Pakistan only because Indian Interior Minister Amit Shah son is an ICC Chief.”
Taking the Indian government to task, he said “It blocks Pakistani actor film in India but they play match against Pakistan as the ICC Chief is son of Amit Shah.”
He asked the Indian government “When they can play the match against Pakistan why do they stop Indian Sikhs visiting Kartarpur?”
Asia Cup 2025: Indian Punjab CM criticises Indian team for not shaking hand with Pakistani team
Indian Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has criticised Indian team over not shaking hand with Pakistani team.arynews.tv
He himself was quite mediocre against India and failed in the biggest matches.
Not sure about his comment on the handshake, but he did make a statement about Amit Shah and Diljit Singh's movie featuring @Bhaijaan's, @RizwanT20Champ's and @TexasRattlesnake's favorite, Hania Amir.
Did the BCCI Secretary in his statement not mention whether he has the testicular fortitude, as hosts of the Asia Cup, to sideline this hostile country from the tournament ?
I see your highlight comment multiple times so let's me show you the mirror.
Does the ACC cum PCB chairman have the same testicular fortitude to reprimand and take action on Indian team for humiliating Pakistan team off field?.
So indirectly saying that Pakistani cricketers doesn't have self respect and wag their tails where money is thrown?
That's not the argument India makes publicly though. Firstly, nobody can credibly believe that BCCI is bound by altruistic concerns over the financial sustainability of other Asian boards. If that was true, BCCI would've long consented to changes to ICC's revenue distribution model, setting up a Test Fund etc.
I've already said Naqvi is a self-serving charlatan. If PCB was run by semi-competent administrators and didn't spend money on hare-brained schemes - it wouldn't be so dependent on revenues from events like the Asia Cup.
I knew someone would raise that comment.I see your highlight comment multiple times so let's me show you the mirror.
Do you know that before the 2023 World Cup, Pakistan chairman Zaka Ashraf openly called India an "enemy country" in front of the media, yet sent the Pakistan team to play in India and he himself came to India to watch the enemy country match and eat biryani.
It's so easy to blame India and BCCI na..It's like an incompetent employee blaming his boss for his failures however doesn't quit his job because he knows he won't get job anywhere else..
It is not begging. You guys don't have sportsman's spirit, and the whole thing is about the Match official who was biased in this whole mess.
That's not him. Mukul was the BD umpire. He is not as elite as our other umpire Saikat. However, he has been quite good this Asia Cup so far.Masudur Rahman - Bangladeshi umpire and no wonder @sweep_shot didn't said BCCICC buy the Bangladesh People's.
Hahaha nice excuse Rana. This is why Pakistan had lost the match.
SKY must be studied in schools then, because his so called masterclass began after shaking the hands of Naqvi and getting flamed by you and your media for days. What a genius to present a masterclass in this way.
Forget about this. You need to show me source of you last night claimed about indian Targeting sky children. Or you spread fake propaganda ?
Handshake with a cheerful smile
with Naqvi
We all expected this bro. It's nothing new.One of the worst Asia Cups I have seen.
India made it worse with their petty antics.
Agree because there is not even single team who is close to indian team .One of the worst Asia Cups I have seen.
India made it worse with their petty antics.
The goverment yes, the players are forced to do what the goverment says.Yes but they have been doing these much more lately compared to 5-6 years ago.
India turned this sport into a smelly cow dung sport.
This is shameless behavior TBH,, Hypocrisy of some highest level..Yeah. This is funny.
Surya should be shown this photo next time he refuses to shake hand.
If we hadn’t reacted, India would have looked bad. It was actually a golden opportunity to show India up for bringing politics into sport.
Yeah. This is funny.
Surya should be shown this photo next time he refuses to shake hand.

Who cares about them... but you do care about surya so explain this hypocrisy??Sri Lanka fight controversy with controversy, refuse to shake hands with Bangladesh players after Mathews timed out
As soon as Bangladesh got the winning runs, the Sri Lanka players shook hands with the umpires and walked off. They refused to shake hands with Bangladesh.
Hypocrisy at best .
