Rajeev Shukla says Mohsin Naqvi raised no objection to trophy decision

BCCI vice-president Rajeev Shukla said Mohsin Naqvi raised no objection when told the Indian women's team would not accept the Asia Cup trophy from him. Shukla described the decision as a collective board stance that had been communicated to the ACC in advance.

India beat Sri Lanka by 72 runs in the Dubai final on Sunday. The team had already informed the ACC of its position before the match, and Naqvi accepted the arrangement without protest.

It was the second straight year an Indian side has declined to take the trophy from Naqvi after the men's team did the same in 2025. Shukla said the interaction between Devajit Saikia and Naqvi during the final was a routine exchange.
