Mohsin Naqvi’s days as the president of the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) are numbered. The ACC president’s term lasts for two years and can only be extended through unanimous consent. Naqvi became the president of the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) on April 3, 2025. Mohsin will remain in the position until April 3, 2027, according to the rules.
Naqvi may seek an extension until the ACC Annual General Meeting (AGM), which is generally held in the last quarter of the year, according to a report in Cricbuzz. However, ACC members have said that “the president’s term is not linked to the AGM.”
Bangladesh is next in line, and there is a belief among ACC members that Tamim is looking forward to taking over. But the term of the ACC president has no connection with the AGM,” an ACC member was quoted as saying in the report. Given the controversies Naqvi has been involved in, it is unlikely that he will receive an extension.
“There may be speculation, but Naqvi’s term ends in April 2027. This means that Mohsin will no longer be serving as the ACC president during the 2027 Asia Cup.
Naqvi may argue that the AGM was held only in August last year, when elections to other ACC positions were not held, and that those elections were conducted only in August this year.
