PCB's Mohsin Naqvi apologises to BCCI, but says won't return Asia Cup trophy: Report

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chief Mohsin Naqvi has reportedly apologised to BCCI for taking away the Asia Cup 2025 trophy away from the Dubai International Stadium on September 28 after Suryakumar Yadav's side won the final against Pakistan. IndiaToday on Wednesday (October 1) reported that the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) chairman has apologised for his actions but has stayed adamant on not giving the winners' medals and trophy.

After beating Pakistan in the Asia Cup final on Sunday, India refused to collect the trophy and medals from Naqvi. The ACC chief in reply refused to give India players their mementos and ordered the ACC officials to take the trophy away from the ground.
