Overview
- India’s cricket board sent an official email on October 21 instructing ACC president Mohsin Naqvi to hand the Asia Cup 2025 trophy to India without delay.
- Naqvi has proposed a first‑week‑of‑November handover ceremony and asked that India send a player to receive the trophy, maintaining that he will present it in person.
- The silverware remains at ACC headquarters in Dubai, where it was taken after India declined to accept the on‑field presentation on September 28.
- The BCCI rejected Naqvi’s conditions, reiterated that the trophy should have been presented on the field, and warned it will lodge a complaint with the ICC if there is no satisfactory response.
- ACC members from Sri Lanka and Afghanistan have backed India’s request, and the dispute is expected to be raised in ICC forums next month according to officials and reports.
