- 

A POSTER TITLED 'Final Day' in which Pakistan's top cricketers, including captain Salman Agha and fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi, are seen wearing flight suits with images of airborne fighter jets in the background; another of football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo depicting a crashing plane.

These were the recent social media posts by Asian Cricket Council (ACC) president Mohsin Naqvi that triggered India's refusal to accept the Asia Cup trophy from him after their dramatic five-wicket win against Pakistan in the final in Dubai Sunday night, The Indian Express has learnt. Naqvi also heads the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and is that country's Interior Minister.
