Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut criticised Team India for not shaking hands with Pakistan cricketers, calling it "dadagiri"(bullying) by BJP and central government on Indian players. He added India shouldn't play against Pakistan as half of the money earned through betting would go to terrorists like Masood Azhar. Raut remarked India must display sportsmanship if they choose to play.
