Asian Cricket Council (ACC) President Mohsin Naqvi has said that if the Indian team wants the Asia Cup trophy, their captain will have to personally collect it from the ACC office.
According to media reports quoting sources, Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) Vice President Rajeev Shukla, during a meeting of the council on Tuesday, repeatedly asked for the trophy.
Naqvi responded that the matter was not on the meeting’s agenda, insisting the Indian captain visited the ACC headquarters to collect it.
Reports also confirmed that no decision was taken during the meeting on handing the trophy to India.
The controversy surrounding the trophy erupted after India defeated Pakistan in the Asia Cup final but refused to accept the trophy from Naqvi, who also serves as chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).
With India refusing to accept it, Naqvi stood firm and the presentation ended without the trophy being handed over.
The council administration left with the trophy while the Indian players continued waiting on the field.
