Indian spinner Varun Chakravarthy brought humor to India's Asia Cup 2025 victory by posting Instagram images of himself with a coffee mug as a trophy substitute. The posts showed him mimicking athletes' celebratory poses, clutching the mug in bed and presenting close-up shots. This viral gesture referenced the missing official trophy after India refused to accept it from ACC president and PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi during the presentation ceremony. India won their ninth Asia Cup title with a five-wicket victory over Pakistan in Dubai. Chakravarthy and Kuldeep Yadav's spin bowling dismantled Pakistan for 146, before Tilak Varma's unbeaten 69 guided India's chase, completing the triumph without official silverware.
