Naqvi Attends Abrar Ahmed Reception, Dodges Question on Asia Cup Trophy

The trophy’s custody remains unresolved, with India yet to receive it after reports of a transfer to the Emirates Cricket Board.

Overview

  • Video from Abrar Ahmed’s reception in Karachi shows ACC and PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi refusing to address a reporter’s question about the Asia Cup trophy before departing in his car.
  • Naqvi has dominated headlines since walking away with the trophy when India declined to accept it from him after winning the final in Dubai.
  • Multiple reports say Naqvi handed the trophy to the Emirates Cricket Board, yet the tournament winners from India still do not have it.
  • Naqvi earlier drew attention for posting a clip of Cristiano Ronaldo’s “fighter jet” gesture, as the ICC fined Haris Rauf 30% of his match fee and warned Sahibzada Farhan over similar celebrations.
  • India claimed a ninth Asia Cup title, with Tilak Varma’s 69 highlighted in coverage as pivotal to the win.
