The champions of Asia Cup 2025 have denied taking the trophy from Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chief and Asian Cricket Council (ACC) chairman Mohsin Naqvi. The Indian Team has taken a firm stand and refused to take the trophy from Naqvi, who was left standing on the stage while no one showed up.
After the match concluded, both the sides did not shake hands again and the Indian fans even started to boo and chant “Bharat Mata ki Jai” in the stadium. Even though Naqvi waited to present the trophy, no member from the Indian side went on the stage and someone from the organisers took the trophy to the Indian dressing room.

There was almost an hour delay in the start for post-match presentation after which Pakistan skipper Salman Ali Agha came for his post-match interview. The PCB chief had recently posted a video of Cristiano Ronaldo where he was trying to show plane crash through his hands. The post didn’t sit well and triggered a huge storm on social media as the video was interpreted as a reference of Pakistan’s delusional claim of downing six Indian jets.
India won the Asia Cup 2025 after defeating Pakistan by 5 wickets. Opting to bowl first, India restricted Pakistan at a score of 146 runs with top bowler being Kuldeep Yadav who spun his way to pick 4 wickets. Other than him, Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakaravarthy and Axar Patel picked 2 wickets each.
Pakistan on the other hand has now lost three matches in one single tournament against India. The Men in Blue crushed the Pakistani side and proved who is the actual winner. The rivalry now seems to be only one side dominance with India time and then thrashing Pakistan.
