Regional body promoting cricket in Asia under ICC
India has won the Asia Cup by beating Sri Lanka by 72 runs, marking an eighth title. The post-match ceremony was lengthy and controversial as India's team declined to receive the trophy from ACC chair Naqvi amid ongoing India-Pakistan tensions. The ceremony ended without the Indian team on stage and without individual awards.
India has secured a 19-run win over Pakistan to seal the men’s cricket gold at the Asian Games, posting 211-6 and restricting Pakistan to 192-6. Abhishek Sharma led the charge with a 61 while Tilak Varma finished with a rapid 51 not out. Hasan Nawaz’s 96 kept Pakistan’ hopes alive, but the chase fell short.
