Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Mohsin Naqvi will be present at the Women’s Asia Cup final in India. If India wins, the trophy presentation could spark tensions similar to last year’s incident.
Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Mohsin Naqvi, who also serves as president of the Asian Cricket Council, is scheduled to attend the Women’s Asia Cup final in India.
India, which has advanced to the semi‑finals, is considered a strong contender for the title and is expected to face a tough opponent in the final.
Should India clinch victory, the trophy presentation may become contentious. The situation echoes last year’s incident when India declined to accept the Men’s Asia Cup trophy from Naqvi.
The event highlights the delicate diplomatic balance that cricket continues to play between India and Pakistan, with each match carrying both sporting and political significance.
