Reacting to Team India players refusing to shake hands with Pakistan cricketers following their Asia Cup 2025 match in Dubai, ex-India all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin said, "You [Pakistan] didn’t lose because we didn’t shake hands." "Please go and find out what you can actually improve," Ashwin added. "After all this drama, you lost...match. So what are you complaining about?" he stated.
