Overview
- Varun Chakravarthy said the trophy‑less podium celebration was Arshdeep Singh’s idea, while Sanju Samson called it strange but reflective of the team’s positive environment.
- BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia wrote to the ACC seeking the trophy and medals, then left an ACC online meeting after failing to get a timeline for their handover.
- Video from Abrar Ahmed’s reception in Karachi shows ACC president and PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi ignoring reporters’ questions about the trophy’s status.
- Media reports say the silverware was moved to UAE cricket or ACC offices in Dubai, yet India has not received the cup despite winning the final.
- India had asked for a different presenter and refused to take the trophy from Naqvi, whose pre‑final social posts drew criticism; the ICC fined Haris Rauf for a related on‑field gesture and warned Sahibzada Farhan.
