After Asia Cup trophy snub, Kapil dodges Naqvi bullet with witty one-liner

NEW DELHI: India’s women’s cricket team won the Asia Cup for a record eighth time on Sunday. But the post-match celebrations were overshadowed by the team’s decision not to receive the trophy from Asian Cricket Council chief Mohsin Naqvi, who is also Pakistan’s interior minister and the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB).The decision echoed a similar incident involving India’s men’s team at the 2025 Asia Cup, where Suryakumar Yadav-led side also refused to take the trophy from Naqvi. The development drew widespread discussion once again.Former India captain Kapil Dev, when asked about the team's decision not to receive the trophy from the PCB chief, came up with a brief and witty response.
