Chairman of Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Mohsin Naqvi (PTI Photo/Kamal Kishore) Just a day before the much-anticipated Asia Cup final between India and Pakistan, PCB chairman and Asian Cricket Council chief Mohsin Naqvi has stirred controversy with a cryptic post on social media. On Friday, Naqvi wrote: “How much time do you need to explain the reasons behind the balancing act?†It appears to be a remark that has sparked speculation about its target and timing.
Pakistan coach fires warning ahead of Asia Cup final
The post came against the backdrop of escalating tensions between the two cricket boards, BCCI and PCB. Earlier this week, India captain Suryakumar Yadav was summoned for an ICC hearing after Pakistan lodged a complaint over his comments that paid tribute to Indian armed forces and victims of the Pahalgam terror attack.

The Indian skipper has been fined 30 percent of his match fee.The BCCI, meanwhile, lodged its own complaint against Pakistanâ€s Haris Rauf and Sahibzada Farhan for their provocative gestures during the Asia Cup Super 4 clash. Rauf mimicked the downing of an aircraft, while Farhan celebrated his fifty with a mock gun-firing gesture. Both acts triggered backlash for crossing the line of on-field behaviour. The ICC has since penalised Rauf with a 30 percent match fee deduction, while Farhan received an official warning. In a surprising move, Naqvi, according to Pakistani media outlets, has offered to personally pay Raufâ€s fine, further intensifying the spotlight on the issue.Adding fuel to the fire, Naqvi also shared a slow-motion Cristiano Ronaldo video on X (formerly Twitter), showing the footballer mimicking a crashing motion. The clip bore striking resemblance to Raufâ€s controversial gesture, raising questions about whether the PCB chief was indirectly endorsing the playerâ€s actions.With both boards trading complaints and players facing sanctions, the run-up to the Asia Cup final has been overshadowed by off-field controversies. The ICC has maintained that political gestures have no place in cricket, but tensions between the rivals have blurred the lines of acceptable conduct.
