Asia Cup Trophy Standoff: ACC To Return India's Asia Cup Trophy After Pak's Naqvi 'Ran Away' With It

A major controversy has erupted between the BCCI and the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) over the Asia Cup 2025 trophy, involving ACC President Mohsin Naqvi. The BCCI has demanded an explanation stating, 'how and why the awards were withheld at the venue, and on what authority the ACC President took possession of them'. After the Indian team, led by Suryakumar Yadav, refused to accept the trophy from Naqvi following their victory over Pakistan, the ACC chief reportedly took the silverware. The ACC has now proposed a formal handover ceremony in Dubai on November 10, an invitation India is unlikely to accept. The BCCI has warned that the matter will be escalated to the ICC next month if the trophy is not returned.
