Dubai
In the Asia Cup 2025 final, India dusted five wickets to Pakistan on Sunday (September 28). But even after this victory, Team India could not do the celebration in that style, which fans were thinking about it.
However, Team India’s T20 captain Suryakumar Yadav showed the wanning celebrations in the way. He remembered Rohit Sharma. Actually, the celebrations of the trophy of the invisible Asia Cup, Surya will be remembered for many years to come.
Team India refused to take the trophy at the hands of Mohsin Naqvi after the Asia Cup final. Because it was not acceptable to Team India to take the trophy from Asian Cricket Council (ACC) and Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) President Mohsin Naqvi.
After this, Naqvi decided to take the trophy and the medals of the winners, which forced the Indian players to celebrate the empty dias. At the same time, BCCI also questioned this action of Naqvi and gave him a strict warning.
Then Surya reminded Rohit….
After this petty act of Naqvi, Suryakumar Yadav kept the team’s mood high. He repeated Selibration of Rohit Sharma’s iconic WWE star ‘Rick Flair’ after winning the 2024 T20 World Cup. During this time the Indian team celebrated the victory, even if the trophy is not in their hands.
In Dubai, there was a delay in the post-match presentation, then the team of team India did not go to the dice to get a trophy and medal. The team talked to AMECC Vice-Chairman Khalid Al Jaruni to take the trophy, but Naqvi turned down it.
Then Surya told Naqvi in gestures…
At the same time, Indian captain Surya said during this time- this is the first time in my career when I saw that the Champion team was denied the trophy. This was not an easy task. We played two good matches in a row, I felt that we were entitled to it. BCCI Secretary Devjit Saikia said that he will register a strong protest against Naqvi in the ICC conference to be held in November.
Team India refuses AI celebration by igniting Pakistan
The atmosphere after the end of the match became more hot as Team India refused to take the trophy from Asian Cricket Council (ACC) and Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Mohsin Naqvi. Mohsin Naqvi kept waiting on the stage for a long time, but the Indian players did not come to receive the trophy.
Indian players celebrated without the Asia Trophy. However, later Indian players shared special photos on their social media accounts. These photos were AI generated, in which the players were posing with the trophy. By doing this, the Indian players worked to show the mirror to the Pakistani team and Mohsin Naqvi.
The AI trophy pictures of Suryakumar Yadav and Shubman Gill won the hearts of Indian fans. Captain Surya shared AI photos with Tilak Verma and Trophy on his X account and wrote, “When the game is over, only the champion is remembered, not the picture of a player with the trophy.”
The Indian team won the Asia Cup in T20 format for the second time. Also, this was Team India’s total 9th Asia Cup win. The Indian team has won the Asia Cup in the ODI format seven times. Tilak Verma’s adventure innings and Kuldeep Yadav’s killer bowling helped to win the Indian team in the title match against Pakistan.
Like Suryakumar Yadav, Shubman Gill also enjoyed the Pakistani team. Shubman Gill shared a similar picture with Abhishek Sharma on his Instagram account. In the caption of Shubman’s post, he put laughter and trophy emoji.
Posts of Indian players have gone viral on social media. Fans are looking at this by linking it to the trophy controversy. Many users believe that this message of players directly shows Team India’s victory and being their real champion. India played seven matches in the Asia Cup 2025 and won all.
On the other hand, after the end of the title match, Mohsin Naqvi took the Asia Cup Trophy and medal to his hotel room. The Cricket Control Board of India (BCCI) expressed strong objection to this and said that the trophy should come to India because the champion has become their team. Mohsin Naqvi remained in controversy throughout the tournament and he got a lot of interference within the Pakistani team.
Mohsin Naqvi took the trophy to the hotel room
Team India, who won the title by defeating Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2025 finals, may not have received the trophy, but now this dispute has taken a new turn.
In fact, ACC (Asian Cricket Council) President and PCB (Pakistan Cricket Board) Chairman Mohsin Naqvi is accused of taking the winning trophy and medal to his hotel room. On this, the BCCI has expressed strong objection, saying that the trophy should be sent to India, because the team winning the title is entitled to its real.
In this match, Team India won the title by defeating Pakistan by five wickets in the Asia Cup final played on Sunday thanks to Tilak Verma’s brilliant half -century innings and Kuldeep Yadav bowling. This was his second T20 format winning in the second and the ninth final of Asia Cup.
