BCCI Secretary Confirms Asia Cup Trophies Will Reach Board Headquarters After Indian Teams Skip Presentation
The BCCI secretary has given a clear assurance that the Asia Cup trophies won by India’s men and women’s teams will eventually arrive at the board’s head office.
Indian Teams Decline Trophy Handover
Both the Indian men’s team and the Indian women’s team chose not to accept the Asia Cup winners’ trophy directly from ACC president Mohsin Naqvi during the presentation ceremony.
Mohsin Naqvi also serves as the PCB chief, a detail that forms part of the official statement released on the matter.
Official Assurance from BCCI Secretary
The BCCI secretary stated that the trophies will land up at the board’s head office in due course.
The trophies will land up at our head office.
This statement addresses questions about the physical custody of the Asia Cup trophies following the decision by both teams not to receive them on stage from the ACC president.
Background of the Trophy Refusal
The refusal by the Indian squads came during the Asia Cup event organised under the ACC.
India’s men and women’s teams had both secured the winners’ trophies in their respective competitions.
- India men’s team: Asia Cup winners
- India women’s team: Asia Cup winners
- Trophy not accepted from ACC president Mohsin Naqvi
The BCCI secretary’s assurance provides the official position on where the trophies will ultimately be housed.
Key Details Shared
No additional context beyond the secretary’s statement and the teams’ decision has been provided in the official communication.
The focus remains on the trophies reaching the BCCI head office as confirmed.
Indian cricket fans tracking updates on the Asia Cup will note this development regarding trophy handover protocols.
Next Steps for Trophy Custody
The assurance from the BCCI secretary settles the immediate question of the trophies’ destination.
Both the men’s and women’s Asia Cup trophies are expected to follow the path outlined in the statement.
This completes the official update on the matter from the board.
