Overview

• India’s players declined to accept the trophy from ACC president Mohsin Naqvi after the final, the presentation was delayed for over an hour, and the on-stage handover was scrapped.
• Naqvi denied apologising to the BCCI and said the champions can receive the trophy only by collecting it from him at the ACC office in Dubai.
• BCCI representatives lodged objections during the ACC meeting and the board plans to file a formal complaint at the ICC’s November meeting.
• Reports describe an ACC split, with Sri Lanka backing India and Bangladesh aligning with Pakistan, and suggest India may seek a no-confidence motion against Naqvi.
• The trophy’s custody remains disputed, with conflicting accounts over whether Naqvi left the venue with it and where it is currently being held.
