Kapil Dev gives check to Mohsin Naqvi, and breaks the silence on the Indian controversy against Pakistan in the Asian Cup

The legendary Indian cricket player, Capel Dave, participated in his arguments about the 2025 AFC Asian Cup final between India and Pakistan on Sunday (September 28) in Dubai. He urged everyone to focus on the cricket game instead of politics after the 2025 Asian Cup drama.

The final match ended with Pakistan beating Pakistan with five share to raise the cup for the ninth time, but the celebrations turned into a new controversy. The Indian cricket team led by Syria, Yaadaf, refused to accept the cup and medals from Mohsen Naqafi.

Kapil Dev calls to focus on the cricket game, not policy, amid the Asian Cup 2025 drama

NAQVI is currently working as Pakistan’s Internal Minister, regardless of the presidency of the Pakistani Cricket Council (PCB) and the Asian Cricket Council (ACC). Since the Asian Cup was organized by the Administrative Coordination Committee, Mohsin Naqvi has been entitled to deliver silver pots and winners to the Champion team.

However, given the ongoing tension between India and Pakistan, Syria Yadaf refused to take the cup from the Minister of Interior in Pakistan. Naqafi refused to give this honor to another person, and men in blue had to celebrate the victory without their official awards.

Before the final match, the continental championship had already witnessed a lot, from Syriacumar and his team refused to shake hands with Pakistani players to Harris Rove gestures “6-0”, “plane crash” and Sahibzada Farhan “shot” in the four super match.

We must look at the sports side: Capel Dave

Meanwhile, Capel Dave stressed that cricket should remain a pure sport, free of political intervention. The captain of the India -winning World Cup in 1983 highlighted the responsibility of the players and the media to focus on the game instead of disputes.

“I just want to say – your responsibility, and the responsibility of the entire media as well, is that we must look at the sports side rather than looking at the side of politics. Yes, the media bears the responsibility of bringing everything to the table, but as a sport, I would like to see that we should stick to sports. That will be much better.”

The current Pakistan team, Kapil Dev Slams, says, says today’s players who cannot match the legends of the 1990s to the 1990s

Thinking about the performance of Pakistan, the legendary founder indicated that the current team lacks the type of exceptional talents seen in the 1980s and 1990s, when legends such as Wassim Akram, Imran Khan, Jafid Mayad, Zuhair, and Rakhari Yunus Unit.

Capel Dave also said that the current players in Pakistan are not approaching this level. The Indian legend also said: “Yes, I think they do not have the similar talents they used to in the 1980s, in the nineties or before. Pakistan gave us the world, one of the best cricket players.”

He signed by saying: “You can talk about Imran Khan, you can talk about Javid Manad, Zuhair Abbas, Wassim Akram, and” The 1990s “, and the dar of Yunus. They gave us that talent. But unfortunately, we cannot see a similar talent today – and not even one percent of what they have used to.”

It is worth noting that Pakistan was a promising start with an opening partnership of 84 years between Fakhara Zaman and Sahabzada Farhan. But the middle system has collapsed significantly, as it had only been accommodated for 33 races, as it ended a total of 146 in 19.1 amounts. India also started a fragile start, as it lost three early share, but carried their nerves and won the match in Dubai.
