Mohsin Naqvi Becomes New ACC President, Aims to Boost Asian Cricket

From PCB to ACC: Naqvi’s Growing Role in Cricket
Mohsin Naqvi has been at the helm of the PCB since the start of progress in early 2024. Under his watch, Pakistan is said to have modernized three major stadiums and even played an important role in the future of the Champions Trophy 2025 through a hybrid model of hosting.
Naqvi’s Vision for Asian Cricket
“I’m looking forward to working closely with all member boards to take the game to new heights,” said Naqvi, who also expressed his thanks to the outgoing president for his service, promising to build on the work already done by the ACC.
One of the first big tests that Naqvi will face will be organizing the Asia Cup in September. Although slated for India, the ongoing political tensions between that country and Pakistan will rule that outever again bringing the tournament to any such venue.
