India defeated Pakistan by 6 wickets in the Asia Cup 2025 Super Four stage, but Pakistan's media controversies continue escalating. Pakistan's Media Manager Naeem Gilani avoided Indian journalists' questions for the second time, while PCB skipped two pre-match press conferences against UAE and India. This biased treatment contrasts sharply with India's Media Manager Moulin Parikh, who allows Pakistani journalists to ask questions freely. Gilani faces ICC scrutiny for filming Pakistan's meeting with Match Referee Andy Pycroft, violating regulations. Venue Manager Emmad Hammed, a Pakistan-born former PCB communications member, failed explaining Pakistan's behavior. PCB Chief Mohsin Naqvi only said "We will talk soon" when questioned about irregular press conferences. (PC: Times Now & Business Standard)
