This controversy began after India defeated Pakistan in a thrilling contest in the Asia Cup final. The Indian players decided not to accept the trophy from the hands of the ACC chief in protest of Naqvi's provocative actions.
Since the deadlock persisted, the BCCI had sent an official email to Mohsin Naqvi demanding the Asia Cup trophy, which the Indians deserved after having won the tournament. Board secretary Devajit Saikia told India Today that they are awaiting a response, and if not, then the matters will be escalated to the ICC.
Mohsin Naqvi asks BCCI to receive the Asia Cup Trophy in person
In response, Mohsin Naqvi sent a detailed letter to BCCI acknowledging India's achievement. Asserting ACC's neutral stance on political matters, the ACC chairman wrote in return:
"The BCCI was represented online at the AGM by Mr. Rajeev Shukla and Ashish Shelar. This matter was discussed in detail during the AGM; however, since you have circulated this letter to ACC members, it is only appropriate to set the record straight."
"The ACC President is extremely appreciative and notes with pleasure the emphasis you have placed in your letter on longstanding customs, traditions, established practices, cricketing protocols, and fundamental elements of sport integrity."
Mohsin Naqvi criticized the politicization of cricket
However, the ACC also criticised what it meant by the politicisation of cricket:
"There was never any official communication shared with the ACC office or the Tournament Director highlighting any position or concern of the BCCI with respect to prize distribution."
The letter further emphasised the ACC’s commitment to preserving the integrity of the ceremony:
"The ACC trophy rightly belongs to the Indian Cricket Team and is being held in trust till such time that a BCCI office holder, along with any available participating player, can collect it from the ACC President."
