Batting legend Sunil Gavaskar made fun of the Pakistan National cricket team captain, Salman Aga to release the presentation ceremony after the end of the Asia Cup 2025 game against the India National Cricket Team.

Instead, it was just one team – India – the other a cruel curse – Pakistan – and showing who is the real owner of the cricket game.
In Blue, men started the match with one wicket in the first over and continued their dominance in all 35.5 overs. After limiting Pakistan to 127/9, he chased a total of 7 wickets and 25 balls.
Before playing, in the toss, Suryakumar Yadav joined hands with Salman Aga, and the same thing was seen after the game as India refused to negotiate with Pakistan players.
In protest against India, who did not follow an unwritten custom after the competition, Pakistan captain Salman Aga left the post -match presentation, and coach Mike Hessen while speaking to the press called India’s decision “disappointing”.
Sports and politics never separated – Sunil Gavaskar
Speaking after the match, the great Sunil Gavaskar clearly stated that “sports and politics have never separated,” and no one was interested in listening to Captain Salman Aga on the pretext of losing in the toss.
“Sports and politics have never separated – you only need to look back for years to see it. I will not criticize anyone to take that attitude, and I do not want to get into debate about it.
“When you start discussing political contexts, you are involved in the policies and complications that are clearly beyond my salary grade. I don’t think it made a lot of difference anyway – people mainly wanted to hear what the winning captain has to say, no excuse from the other side,” Sunil Gavaskar told India Tude.
There are times on the field when people misuse you – Sunil Gavaskar
Sunil Gavaskar justified India’s customary post-Match Handshek ceremony, saying that doing so is well within the players’ rights.
“I didn’t really see it myself, but eventually it depends on what they want to do. There are times on the field when people misuse you and say things that are not acceptable.
“If someone is telling you the name, it is too much to expect that you go and shake hands with them. I don’t know what happened on the field or what words were exchanged, but if a person decides to join hands, they are completely within their rights to do so,” Gavaskar said.
