  "account": "ACC President Mohsin Naqvi will not be present at the medal ceremony for the Asian Games men's cricket competition final, which will take place at Korogi Sports Park in Nisshin. According to the Asian Cricket Council (ACC), Naqvi is unable to attend due to prior commitments. The ACC confirmed this decision through their official social media platforms, expressing their best wishes to all four participating teams for the upcoming gold and bronze medal matches. The bronze medal match will see Bangladesh face off against Sri Lanka, while Pakistan and India will compete for the gold medal. Despite his inability to make it to Nagoya, Naqvi has pledged his support for the teams, stating he will be eagerly anticipating the thrilling action at the Gold and Bronze Medal Matches. Naqvi's absence also means that India will not face another occurrence of the ACC president presenting the medals. This was evident after last year's ACC Men’s T20 Asia Cup when India refused to accept the trophy and medals presented by Naqvi, causing a delay in the closing ceremony and leaving the trophy with him until today. The same situation occurred after the ACC Women’s T20 Asia Cup final, where India also declined to collect the trophy from Naqvi following their victory.",
