The Masters must've thought the money at stake is too lucrative to continue indulging in such kind of grumpy politics. Of course, they had imposed some pre-conditions that included making the 'handshake' a mandatory protocol, but the ICC looked the other way.

But your sense of reasoning tells you that this is the first time you have visited or passed through that.
There can be two justifications or possible explanations of such an experience.

There is an in-built sense of belonging in all of us which makes us to accept all earthly things naturally. This cannot happen by chance only.
Anyway, this is not a debate for believing or not believing. This is just an argument to explain things that cannot be explained otherwise.
