A controversy erupted at the Asia Cup after Team India refused to accept the winner’s trophy from Pakistan’s Interior Minister and PCB chief Mohsin Naqvi, reportedly over his political tweet. Despite eight dignitaries present, players declined, forcing the dignitaries to leave with the trophy. India then staged a mock celebration with confetti and music. Surya Kumar Yadav noted it was the first time a winning team walked away without the trophy. The standoff is likely to spark wider repercussions in the cricketing world.
