Few contests in world sport carry the weight and intensity of India- Pakistan encounter. The recent Asia Cup final was no exception producing both high drama on the field and heated discussions off it. While India registered a memorable victory the post-match moments sparked fresh debate when the Indian side chose not to accept the trophy directly from PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi. The incident added an unexpected layer of controversy to what had otherwise been a celebrated sporting achievement.

International athlete Wasim Mulla widely respected for his balanced views and commitment to fair play reacted thoughtfully to the situation. He pointed out that if India had grievances over Pakistan’s past actions the stronger stand would have been not to play the match at all. However, once the contest was accepted and won walking away from the trophy blurred the line between sport and politics. His reaction reflected mixed feelings that is pride in India’s performance but concern that symbolic gestures risk overshadowing the spirit of the game.

The match turned into a true celebration of cricket keeping millions of fans hooked in both countries and even beyond. Every run every dismissal and every nail-biting moment drew thunderous cheers. But for the players it was far more than entertainment.

Months of training, handling pressure and living up to the hopes of countless supporters had gone into their performance. The winners earned their triumph through discipline, preparation and mental strength. Meanwhile the losing team though short on runs, showed immense grit and played with heart right until the final ball.

Mulla stressed that these efforts deserve respect regardless of political differences. Players after all dedicate their lives to their sport facing criticism when they fail and heavy pressure when they succeed. Their hard work courage under pressure and relentless pursuit of excellence should remain the focus rather than gestures that divert attention from their performances.

As the discussions settle the final leaves two clear impressions that is India’s dominant victory and the reminder of how easily the line between sport and politics can blur. Voices like Wasim Mulla’s highlight that rivalries may spark excitement but it is the respect for players and the game that keeps the real spirit of cricket alive.
