Mohsin Naqvi's tenure as ACC President may end soon after Asia Cup Trophy Row. PC- AFP The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairperson Mohsin Naqvi hogged all the limelight after Team India had won its eighth Women’s Asia Cup title, beating Sri Lanka by 72 runs in Dubai on Sunday.Naqvi, who is also serving as the President of the Asian Cricket Council, was in attendance for the Women’s Asia Cup 2026 final and chose to hand over the winning trophy and medals to Harmanpreet Kaur and company, who refused to take them from the Pakistani chief. In the aftermath, many jigsaw pieces have come together about who chose to refuse it, with head coach Amol Muzumdar and BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia openly stating that this was the the board’s stance. BCCI to not allow Mohsin Naqvi to get an extension as ACC PresidentMohsin Naqvi has been in the ACC President's chair since April 2025, after succeeding BCCI’s former secretary Jay Shah at the top cricketing post in Asia. With his tenure set to end in April next year, Naqvi has only seven months left in the top role. Although there have been instances when the Presidents have received extensions, it won’t be the case for the current president, with the BCCI not on the best of terms with Naqvi after the recent drama in the Women’s Asia Cup 2026. According to PTI’s Kushan Sarkar, not only the BCCI but the 47-year-old is expected to receive no support from the other Asian board members.Also Read: Aaqib Javed To Become The Latest Victim Of Pakistan's Debacle, Confirms Ex Selector“Mohsin Naqvi's tenure as chairman of ACC ends in April, 2027 which is roughly another 7 months.

As of now @BCCI unlikely to do anything but Naqvi certainly won't get 1 more All dramas that unfolded in Mohsin Naqvi's tenureUnder Mohsin Naqvi, the Asian apex council has hosted three major tournaments: the Men’s Asia Cup 2025, the Emerging Asia Cup in 2025, and the recently concluded Women’s Asia Cup. However, India won two of these tournaments, and the Indian teams refused to accept the trophies from the PCB chief. Recently, the BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia stated the board’s stance, saying they have been clear for one and a half years, when Suryakumar Yadav’s India refused to take the coveted trophy from Naqvi, who later took it with him. “Our stand is about one and a half years old now. Because of our stand, we have yet to receive the trophy for the men’s Asia Cup. So we cannot change it,” Devajit Saikia told PTI.“We can say that the deputy chairman of the ACC can hand over the trophy. That was our request, so that all these controversies can be avoided, because everybody knows what is happening on the ground.”Mohsin Naqvi won’t be ACC President during next major eventDespite multiple attempts, the Indian board has yet to secure the trophy from the ACC. Meanwhile, it is expected to do the same with the Women’s Asia Cup trophy as well. Thus, the BCCI won’t be giving their support to Naqvi for his extension at the ACC. Nevertheless, the next major ACC tournament won't be concluded under the Mohsin Naqvi regime. Hence, such drama won't unfold when any Indian team win an ACC event. The next ACC event in line is the men's Asia Cup, which is scheduled to be hosted in Bangladesh next year in June-July. Also Read: All Controversies In Mohsin Naqvi’s Tenure As ACC Chairman
