ICC Sets Up Panel to Mediate Asia Cup Trophy Dispute After BCCI’s Formal Complaint

India seeks a Naqvi‑free handover as the trophy stays at ACC offices in Dubai.

Overview

  • The BCCI formally raised the missing Asia Cup 2025 trophy at ICC Board meetings in Dubai, pressing for prompt handover to the champions.
  • The ICC agreed to mediate through a committee, reported by multiple outlets to be chaired by Oman Cricket Board chief Pankaj Khimji.
  • The dispute was not on the official agenda and was handled in informal discussions, with PCB/ACC chief Mohsin Naqvi arriving at the venue at the last minute.
  • The trophy remains in ACC custody in Dubai under Naqvi’s authorization protocols, and a proposed November 10 presentation in Dubai was declined by the BCCI.
  • The BCCI has compiled charges to challenge Naqvi’s dual public and cricket roles, and an ICC‑facilitated meeting between Devajit Saikia and Naqvi began talks toward a resolution, according to Saikia.
