No handshakes likely as India set up cricket final against Pakistan

NAGOYA, Japan (AP): Cricket heavyweights India and Pakistan will meet in the Asian Games gold medal match after winning their semi-finals yesterday. Pakistan beat Bangladesh by six wickets in a match reduced to 13 overs each innings because of a wet outfield. India handed a crushing 124-run defeat to Sri Lanka in the second semi-final, with four Sri Lankan batters failing to score. Political tensions between the nuclear-armed neighbours will likely be in focus once again when the cricket rivals contest tomorrow’s final in Japan.
