India maintains no-handshake policy against Pakistan as Suryakumar Yadav skipped handshake with Salman Agha during the toss.
The biggest and most lucrative clash in world cricket has sold out the 35,000-capacity R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo with hundreds of millions more expected to watch on television.
The game was only confirmed as going ahead late on Monday night after the Pakistan government made a U-turn on its order to boycott the blockbuster Group A game.
