BCCI Confident Asia Cup Trophies Will Return to Mumbai Despite Presentation Standoff
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Devajit Saikia stated that the Asia Cup trophies won by India's men's and women's teams will eventually be brought to the BCCI headquarters in Mumbai, though no timeline was provided. Both teams declined to accept their trophies from Asian Cricket Council president Mohsin Naqvi, who is also Pakistan's interior minister, due to political tensions. The trophies currently remain at the ACC headquarters in Dubai. Saikia also expressed confidence in the women's team's prospects at the upcoming Asian Games.
