The Asia Cup saga refuses to die down, and at the heart of the storm is ACC Chief and Pakistan Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi. A month after India’s victory, the trophy still hasn’t reached its rightful winners. Naqvi insists the Indian team must personally collect it in a formal ceremony - a demand BCCI has outright rejected. What started as a matter of protocol has now turned into a power struggle fueled by ego and politics. With Sri Lanka and Afghanistan siding with India, and the BCCI threatening to escalate the issue to the ICC, this controversy has divided Asian cricket. Has Mohsin Naqvi’s pride overshadowed the spirit of the game, or is there a deeper geopolitical play behind this standoff? Rupha Ramani with more.
