The Indian cricket team started a new controversy during the Asia Cup 2025 as they declined to accept the trophy from Asian Cricket Council (ACC) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi, who is also heading the Pakistan Cricket Board’s (PCB), sources told Brackly News on Sunday.

The move reportedly came on the directives of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).

Despite pressure, Naqvi remained firm on his decision to present the trophy himself, refusing to bow to India’s demands, the sources added.

The development has sparked attention during the high-profile final in Dubai, highlighting tensions off the field.

According to insiders, the stance was a continuation of India’s rigid approach throughout the tournament, where they insisted on conditions separate from neutral arrangements.

This is a developing story and is being updated with more details.
