00:00Where is the Asia Cup kept and how can India get it back?

00:02That at the moment looks tough.

00:04According to reports, Asian Cricket Council Chief and Pakistan's Interior Minister Mohsen Nakvi

00:08has directed that the trophy remain at the ACC headquarters in Dubai

00:11and not to be handed over to India without his approval.

00:14Nakvi had earlier allegedly taken their trophy to his hotel room

00:16after India refused to accept it from him following their win against Pakistan in the finals.

00:21Later, Nakvi reportedly proposed a private ceremony to personally present their trophy to Team India,

00:25a condition the team is unlikely to accept.

00:27There are two possible ways India can bring the cup back home.

00:30This is what reports are suggesting that they would want to impeach him as the president.

00:34But if you want to impeach him, then you need a two-thirds majority there.

00:40India will have to look at other partners.

00:42You know, Malaysia, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, all these countries

00:45actually have one vote in that 30-member Asian Cricket Council.
