Handshakes took place between India and Pakistan players as they took to the field for their Sultan of Johor hockey clash in Malaysia on Sunday.

This comes after India’s men’s and women’s cricket teams did not shake hands with their Pakistani counterparts during the Asia Cup and the ongoing ICC Women's Cricket World Cup.

However, on Ashley Morrison Media’s YouTube channel, where the match was being live-streamed, some players from both teams could be seen shaking the hands of their opponents.

Both teams went on to play a 3-3 draw.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
