Acting President Rajeev Shukla to be the one -time official BCCI -official presence in India against Pakistan match in Asia Cup 2025, here's the reason
Acting President Rajeev Shukla will be the only cricket official in India (BCCI) to attend the high voltage India against Pakistan in the ongoing Asia Cup 2025, which would be played in Dubai on September 14. Since the Indian vs Pakistan match there has been few, and the BCCI has been asked to run the highlight if the BCCI, which was asked to get the highlight, has been the high-volt collision. Withdraw the game in light of Pahalgam attack and operation Sindoor. Social media was flooded with anger attacks on the BCCI because it continued with the Ind vs Pak Clash, after the government of India’s approval to play in multi-nation tournaments and not in bilateral events. However, it seems that the BCCI has taken a notice of what is going on in social media and decides to distance themselves from the meeting. According to a report at Dainik Jagran, none of the BCCI officials, except Shukla, will be present at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday during the clash of India against Pakistan. The report says that none of the BCCI officials have reached Dubai and that their absence is considered a ‘invincible boycott’. Earlier, during the Indian vs Pakistan collision in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, all the top officials of the BCCI were present. Secretary Devajit Saikia, IPL chairman Arun Dhumal, treasurer Prabhtej Bhatia, and joint secretary Rohan Desai are the other office BCCI carriers. Why would Rajeev Shukla be present if others not? In addition to being the acting president of BCCI, Shukla is also a member of the Executive Council at the Asian Cricket Council (ACC). He will join the Pakistan cricket board chief and current ACC chairman, Mohsin Naqvi. Meanwhile, the former BCCI secretary and ACC chairman, and the current head of the Cricket Board (ICC), Jay Shah, are probably not attending, as he is believed to be in the United States at the moment. The report also cited an official of the BCCI who argued that getting in front of the camera during the Ind vs Pak collision would cause another social media atmosphere against them. “We agreed to the match after we got the government’s consent. If we got on camera during the match, efforts would be made to create an atmosphere against us,” the newspaper quoted the BCCI official.
