Pakistan captain Salman Agha boycotted the post-match award ceremony after the handshake controversy in the first match. On Sunday, the captains of the two teams did not shake hands after the toss. There was no exchange of greetings after the match. However, Pakistan captain Salman spoke after the match.

He said, "Fakhar Zaman, Farhan and others batted well. The way Harris bowled gave us a lot of positives. Our next match is against Sri Lanka. It will be a match in a different city, in a different environment and conditions."

Salman said, "We started very well. We should have scored 10-15 more runs. But they took the match in their direction in the power play. Even then, 170-180 is a score to fight for on this pitch. But they batted well in the power play."

Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav sarcastically said in a press conference after the match, "Let's stop calling the India-Pakistan match a fierce competition."

A Pakistani journalist asked, "Does the matches played in the Gulf countries highlight the difference in quality between the two countries?" Suryakumar laughed and said, " Let's stop calling the India-Pakistan matches competitive . India has won 12 out of 15 T20 matches."

The journalist said he was talking about quality, not rivalry . Surya's response was, "Quality and rivalry are the same thing. If two teams play 15 matches and the result is 8-7 or 7-8, then there is rivalry. But there is no rivalry here."

Suryakumar said, "Indian cricketers played good cricket. Abhishek and Shubman Gill scored 105 runs in nine.5 overs. Indian bowlers bowled better than Pakistani bowlers. But India dropped a lot of wickets. That is part of the match."

What Abhishek said
After the match, Abhishek Sharma, who scored 74 runs off 39 balls, said, "The Pakistani bowlers were coming towards us for no reason, arguing. We wanted to respond to them on the field. We were able to win the team."

Abhishek shared a 105-run partnership with Shubman Gill. He said, "We have played together since childhood. We like each other's company. Shubman was playing very well. We wanted to do something good."
