The India team, led by Harmanpreet Kaur, won a record eighth Women's Asia Cup title by defeating Sri Lanka. However, the team did not participate in the official trophy presentation ceremony. This development has raised questions about the role of the Asian Cricket Council chairman in presenting the trophy.

A precedent from 2022 has been noted, where the ACC president at the time, Jay Shah, was not the one to hand over the trophy to the winning captain. Instead, the Sri Lanka Cricket President presented the trophy to the winning team.

Further details about the current situation and the trophy presentation ceremony are available from the source.
