Indian players' refusal to shake hands with Pakistani players after the Asia Cup clash has sparked a row. The PCB has threatened to withdraw from the match if match referee Andy Pycroft is not removed.
My take
Why did we play the game at all? Remember, Operation Sindoor is still very much on!
Shaking hands is a goodwill gesture and a sort of convention, not law, that is followed globally across the sporting spectrum.
We were boorish in behaviour! Period!!
Tailpiece.
Got up at 5, sent all the messages, chatted with my cousin, Santhi, switched on the morning hymns, lit up the lamp in the puja room, opened up the house for the day.
Made our morning cuppa, fed the cats.
Walked inside the house, exercised and recited my prayers.
Off to Elite Mission Hospital for Lekha's review. Since it was the doctor's day of surgery, she was able to meet him only around a half past 4. Joju, the chauffeur was superb.
Had tea and snack at the Kudumbasree's wayside stall around a half past 5.
Settled down at home for a quiet evening.
