By IANS News October 05, 2025 • 15:38 PM View: 183

As India and Pakistan once again faced each other on the cricket field, this time during the ICC Women’s ODI World Cup match, India captain Harmanpreet Kaur upheld the 'no handshake' policy in the group stage fixture against their arch-rivals here at the R. Premadasa Stadium on Sunday.

At the toss, neither India's captain, Harmanpreet, nor Pakistan's captain, Fatima Sana, took the initiative to exchange the customary pleasantries. After Pakistan won the toss and chose to bowl first against India, the two captains gave their respective interviews and then headed towards their dressing rooms.
