A fresh controversy is emerging around the Women’s Asia Cup trophy handover, after reports allege that Asian Cricket Council (ACC) chief Mohsin Naqvi was personally keen to hand the trophy to the India team. The claims add to an ongoing dispute surrounding how the trophy presentation should be conducted and who should be involved.
The reported account says Naqvi had been informed in advance of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) decision. Different outlets emphasize varying aspects of the dispute, including whether the ACC chief’s actions aligned with the BCCI’s position and what procedure was expected for the presentation. While the core allegations focus on Naqvi’s stated interest in handing over the trophy himself, sources also point to broader questions about coordination between the ACC and the national board responsible for participation and administration.
At issue is the transparency and timing of decisions related to the trophy handover, as well as how authority is exercised in match-day and ceremony arrangements. The situation continues to draw attention as discussions persist over the correctness of the process and the responses from the involved bodies.
