The unusual situation sparked humorous social media posts and fake trophy memes, as the team celebrated their victory while mocking Pakistan’s on-field celebrations.

Kuldeep Yadav, Abhishek Sharma, and Tilak Varma received their individual awards from other dignitaries, while Pakistan captain Salman Yadav accepted the runners-up cheque from Naqvi.

BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia later confirmed that India’s decision to refuse the trophy from Naqvi was due to his political position. Saikia noted the lack of interaction between the Indian players and the ACC chairman during the ceremony.
