Mohsin Naqvi has responded sharply to India’s no-handshake policy, saying Pakistan has “no desire either” if the gesture isn’t wanted. On Sunday, Mohsin Naqvi, the chief of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), once again commented on India's no-handshake policy, emphasizing that Pakistan has no intention of reciprocating if the BCCI maintains its position. This policy was initially implemented by the Indian T20I team, led by Suryakumar Yadav, during the men's Asia Cup in September. Naqvi's comments followed accusations from Pakistan U19 mentor Sarfaraz Ahmed, who labeled the Indian team's actions as "unethical" during the Asia Cup final earlier this month. Nevertheless, the BCCI opted to uphold its stance, maintaining the policy during both the group-stage match against Pakistan and the final.
