The Indian Cricket Control Board (BCCI) has broken its silence regarding the handshake controversy that followed India’s victory against Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2025. After a convincing 7-wicket win on September 14th in the Group A match, Indian players proceeded to their dressing room without shaking hands with the Pakistani team. The PCB subsequently raised concerns with the ICC. The BCCI’s response centers on celebrating the victory and not focusing on any external issues. Devjit Saikia, the BCCI Secretary, emphasized the team’s outstanding performance and encouraged everyone to focus on the joy of the win. The team’s aim is to sustain this winning streak throughout the tournament. Suryakumar Yadav also addressed the situation after the match, stating that they were there solely to play the game.
