The highly anticipated decision on the status of the Asia Cup 2025 trophy and medallions, which India refused to collect from the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) chief and Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Mohsin Naqvi after the final on Sunday, has been postponed.
Notably, the Indian players had refused to receive the Asia Cup 2025 trophy from Naqvi, who is also the Interior Minister for Pakistan and made anti-India posts on social media recently.
To resolve the trophy row issue, there was a meeting of Asian Cricket Council (ACC) members in Dubai on Tuesday, September 30. The ACC meeting was chaired by Naqvi and Rajeev Shukla, the BCCI vice-president, was the Indian representative.
