Mohsin Naqvi's Role in 2026 Women's Asia Cup Trophy Presentation Amid Past Controversy
Mohsin Naqvi, Asian Cricket Council chairman and Pakistan Cricket Board chief, is involved in the 2026 Women's Asia Cup final trophy presentation in Dubai. After a 2025 men's Asia Cup controversy where India refused to accept the trophy from him, reports differ on whether Naqvi will attend or present the trophy this time. Indian players are reportedly advised not to accept the trophy from Naqvi if they win, though no official BCCI statement confirms this. The situation highlights ongoing tensions affecting cricket ceremonies between India and Pakistan.
