Indian cricketers adopted a racist attitude, the nation is being fooled on the issue of not shaking hands, the move goes against the spirit of the game
Azhar Chaudhry, Daily Dawn, Dawn TV Report
Dubai: Renowned cricket broadcaster Ashish Roy has strongly criticized the behavior during the Pakistan-India match. He said that it is completely hypocritical to play the match but not shake hands with the opposing team.
Ashish Roy said in a statement that the Pakistan-India match was not played according to the true spirit of cricket, and compared this situation to the era of apartheid, when teams with non-white players did not play against South Africa.
He added that if a team has to participate in the competition, it should behave according to the spirit of the game, and it is sad that the Indian cricket officials adopted an immoral attitude under pressure from the government.
The broadcaster also requested that the England and Australia Cricket Boards and the MCC stop the tension on the cricket field.
It should be noted that on Sunday, India defeated Pakistan by 7 wickets in the Asia Cup, but Indian captain Suryakumar did not shake hands with the Pakistani captain at the toss, and even after the match ended, the Indian team did not shake hands as per tradition, which violated the spirit of the game.
