Mohsin Naqvi once again got the chill from India! Complaint to ICC regarding U19 Asia Cup final

New Delhi: The controversy has increased after Pakistan’s big victory in the Under-19 Asia Cup final held on 21 December 2025 in Dubai. Pakistan won the title after 13 years by defeating India by 191 runs, but the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) expressed strong objection to the behavior of the players during and after the match.

PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi said that he will make a formal complaint to the International Cricket Council (ICC) about the provocative behavior of Indian Under-19 players.

full match result

Batting first, Pakistan scored 347/8 runs with the explosive innings of 172 runs by Sameer Minhas. In reply, the Indian team collapsed for only 156 runs. During this period Ali Raza had taken 4 wickets. Let us tell you, this is Pakistan’s second trophy in the tournament. At the presentation, the Indian team received the runners-up medals from a different official, while Mohsin Naqvi handed over the trophy to the Pakistani players and participated in the celebration.

main reason for dispute

At the welcome ceremony of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Mohsin Naqvi said that Indian players were repeatedly provoking Pakistani players in the final. He talked about keeping sports and politics separate.

Pakistan Under-19 team mentor Sarfaraz Ahmed described Indian behavior as ‘unethical’ and said his players showed restraint. There were some moments of tension in the match, such as guests after the wicket and send-offs.

effect of old dispute

Such fights are common in India-Pakistan matches. There was a dispute over trophy presentation in the Senior Asia Cup also. This time also the tension increased due to the presence of Mohsin Naqvi. Pakistan says that the spirit of cricket should be maintained even at the youth level.

The ICC investigation may clarify the matter, but questions are again being raised on the cricket relations between the two countries. This victory is a matter of great joy for Pakistan, but the celebration was overshadowed by controversy.
