India Women Refuse Asia Cup Trophy Due to Pakistan Representation

India's women's cricket team declined to accept the Asia Cup trophy from Asian Cricket Council president Mohsin Naqvi due to public sentiment following the 2025 Pahalgam terror attack. BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia said the decision was "conscious and institutional," taken in advance of the final. The team's stance echoed the men's team's decision in the 2025 Asia Cup.
