Pakistan's Interior Minister and Asian Cricket Council (ACC) President, Mohsin Naqvi, has come under scrutiny following the Asia Cup 2025 final. After India defeated Pakistan, the Indian team declined to accept the trophy from Naqvi, leading him to leave the stadium with it. This incident has ignited a debate about the legitimacy of the trophy handover and the implications for Pakistan's victory.
Indian all-rounder Rahul Tewatia commented on the situation, stating, "India won the final. By taking the trophy back, the Pakistan team has not won it." He emphasized that historical records will reflect the true winner, regardless of the trophy's physical location.
The controversy is further complicated by reports that Naqvi is set to receive Pakistan's Shaheed Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto Excellence Gold Medal for his actions during the trophy handover. This move has been interpreted by some as a political gesture amid heightened tensions between India and Pakistan.
