BCCI to Take Asia Cup Trophy Dispute to ICC as Naqvi Is Expected to Miss Dubai Meeting

India says the silverware never reached Mumbai after September’s final, with the ACC chief insisting on an in-person handover.

Overview

  • The ICC’s meetings in Dubai opened on November 4, and the BCCI plans to table its grievance after a November 3 handover deadline passed.
  • A PCB source told OrissaPOST that Mohsin Naqvi is likely to skip the board sessions due to domestic political issues, with COO Sumair Syed covering and remote participation possible.
  • The trophy remains locked at the ACC headquarters in Dubai, according to the report, after it was removed from the dais when India declined to accept it from Naqvi.
  • BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia says the board wrote to the ACC about ten days earlier seeking transfer and will ask the ICC to help secure delivery.
  • Naqvi has insisted on a handover he conducts in Dubai, proposing November 10 or collection by an Indian player and a BCCI representative, while separate reports of a shift to Abu Dhabi are unconfirmed.
