Pakistan captain Salman Ali Agha has not forgotten the handshake controversy against India, stating that since he began playing competitive cricket, he has never seen a match end without a handshake and believes such incidents set a poor precedent for the spirit of the game. 

During the group-stage fixture of the tournament, India captain Suryakumar Yadav refused to shake hands with his Pakistani counterpart and later also skipped the customary post-match handshake.
