Overview
- BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia said an official email demands immediate handover and, absent a response, the board will take the case to the ICC.
- ACC president Mohsin Naqvi insists the trophy be collected in Dubai at a formal ceremony by a BCCI office‑holder with at least one Indian player, with timing suggested for early November.
- The trophy remains at ACC headquarters in Dubai after Naqvi removed it when India declined to receive it at the post‑final presentation.
- Sri Lanka Cricket and the Afghanistan board have supported India’s request for release, yet the ACC position is unchanged ahead of next month’s ICC meetings.
- In a written reply, Naqvi’s office said the trophy “belongs to the Indian Cricket Team” but is being “held in trust” until collection, while Indian officials cite his political roles for rejecting his handover.
