Pakistan captain Salman Ali Agha said he was unsure if his team would observe the traditional handshake with India before their ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 match, amid ongoing controversy. Agha urged both sides to uphold the spirit of cricket but declined to confirm whether the gesture would take place, saying, “We will see about it tomorrow.” The debate stems from last year’s Asia Cup, when India’s Suryakumar Yadav chose not to shake hands with Pakistan’s players in respect for victims of the Pahalgam terror attack, raising tensions between the rivals.
