After the precedens set cricket team of Indian men during the Asia Cup in Dubai, Harmanpreet Kaur and her party also do not deal with the usual handshake with Pakistani players during the colombo World Cup clash.
With the Indo-Pak cricket ties to their lowest outflow, the tension escalated further after the head of the Pakistanic cricket council (PCB) Mohsin Naqvi refused to pass the winner Suryakumar Yadava in Dubai.
A team of Indian men has already refused to accept the trophy from the Pakistani representative.
“BCCI is in line with the government and will not be in throwing any usual handshake, no photo shoot with the referee and no handshake at the end of the game. Politics followed by men will also perform women,” said a higher source of BCCi under anonymity conditions.
He will also carefully monitor who represents throwing in Colombo, expecting to be a former player or puntit from a neutral nation.
The atmosphere will stand in sharp contrast to the ODI World Cup in New Zealand, where the paintings of Indian players with infant daughter Bismah Maroof became a viral.
This time it is unlikely that Harmanpreet Kaur and Pakistan Captain Fatima Sana would exchange even the most basic pleasure.
