PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi has strongly rejected recent claims by Indian media suggesting he apologized to the BCCI. The reports falsely stated that MohsinNaqvi had expressed regret over his refusal to hand over the Asia Cup trophy to the Indian cricket team.
MohsinNaqvi described these reports as “cheap propaganda” and emphasized that they are based on lies rather than facts. He clarified that his stance on the matter remains unchanged.
According to the PCB Chairman, the correct procedure is for the Indian team’s captain to personally visit his office to collect the trophy. He stressed that no apology or compromise would be made regarding this official protocol.
This statement comes amid ongoing tensions between the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). Mohsin Naqvi’s comments highlight the PCB’s commitment to fairness and protocol in international cricket matters.
“The Indian media thrives on lies, not facts,” Mohsin Naqvi said, reinforcing that the recent reports misrepresented his position. He urged media outlets to report responsibly and verify facts before publishing.
Mohsin Naqvi has previously maintained that the Asia Cup trophy will only be handed over following proper formalities. His office confirmed that this policy applies to all participating teams, ensuring transparency and fairness in the distribution process.
The controversy began after Indian outlets circulated news suggesting Mohsin Naqvi had softened his stance. The PCB Chairman’s clarification aims to put an end to speculation and false reporting.
In conclusion, Mohsin Naqvi reaffirmed that Pakistan Cricket Board remains firm on its rules regarding the Asia Cup trophy. Any team wishing to claim it must adhere to the official procedure without exceptions.
