For the first time in the history of the Asia Cup, India and Pakistan faced each other in the final of the continental championship. India went on to win their 9th Asia Cup title, while Pakistan have managed to win only 2 in all these years.
The Indian clearly objected to taking the trophy at the hands of Naqvi, who was involved in several controversial moves on the Indian team, since he also heads the Pakistan Cricket Board. The Indian agreed to take the trophy from the hands of the ECB vice-president; however, Naqvi stood his ground and walked away with the trophy.

As of now, the Indian players look unaffected by the denial of the trophy, as they mocked the PCB chief further, celebrating with an 'imaginary' trophy. Not only that, but the Indian skipper Suryakumar Yadav also imitated Rohit Sharma's infamous celebration from the T20 World Cup 2024 final.
BCCI cites a major reason for India's refusal to accept the trophy
As per reports from the Indian Express, the immediate trigger for Indian cricketers and the BCCI that led to their refusal to accept the trophy was Naqvi's reposting several images on X, which were derogatory and insulting to the Indian side.
The BCCI went on to announce a whopping INR 21 Crore prize money for the Indian team and support staff who were part of the winning squad that played in the Asia Cup.
