BCCI Secretary Assures Asia Cup Trophies Will Reach Headquarters
· Sports · ESPNCricinfo, Times of India
BCCI secretary Jay Shah has assured that the Asia Cup winners' trophies will be delivered to the board's head office. The assurance follows an incident where both the Indian men's and women's teams declined to accept their tournament winning trophies from ACC president Mohsin Naqvi, who also serves as the PCB chief. The refusal occurred during the post-match presentation ceremonies after the Indian sides emerged victorious in their respective continental tournaments. The trophies remained unclaimed on the podium as players walked away without receiving them from the Asian Cricket Council head. Officials have not yet detailed the exact logistics of how the silverware will be transferred to Mumbai.
Why it matters
The resolution of the trophy handover addresses administrative friction between the Indian and Pakistani cricket boards within the Asian Cricket Council.
