India captain Surya Kumar Yadav showed his disappointment after a strange scene followed the Asia Cup 2025 final. Although India won the title, the team refused to take the trophy from ACC Chairman Mohsin Naqvi. Speaking to reporters, Yadav said, “I’ve never seen a trophy-winning team not being awarded,” as the players celebrated without receiving the cup on stage. The moment left fans across the world surprised and confused.
From Pakistan’s side, many called India’s action disrespectful towards the ACC and its chairman. Analysts in Pakistan said that refusing the trophy from Mohsin Naqvi not only hurt the spirit of cricket but also damaged the image of the tournament. They demanded that the Asian Cricket Council clarify the situation, as such incidents can affect the unity of the sport in the region.
