• India won a last‑over final against Pakistan to secure a record ninth Asia Cup title, but the main presentation ended without the champions receiving the trophy.
• Suryakumar Yadav said the refusal to take the trophy from ACC chief Mohsin Naqvi was a player‑led call and said he saw officials leave with the silverware.
• The BCCI says it will lodge a formal protest at the ICC meeting in early November over Naqvi’s conduct during the ceremony.
• Reports state ACC staff removed the trophy and it is believed to be at ACC headquarters in Dubai, as the winners celebrated with mock trophy photos.
