By winning the Asia Cup 2025, the Indian team has once again proven its superiority in world cricket. However, the tournament has been mired in controversy and is still being politicized. Aam Aadmi Party leader Saurabh Bhardwaj is also trying to leverage this political influence. He first challenged Suryakumar Yadav to donate his earnings. Surya responded with a befitting reply. Now, Saurabh has challenged the central government to donate the entire Asia Cup earnings. What did Saurabh Bhardwaj write? Saurabh Bhardwaj wrote on the social media platform X, "The total earnings from the India-Pakistan matches alone were between ₹490 crore and ₹630 crore. If this money is distributed among the families of the victims of the Pahalgam attack, each family will receive ₹19-25 crore. The BJP government will provide it." What is the matter? After winning the first match against Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2025, Suryakumar Yadav dedicated Team India's victory to the martyrs of the Pahalgam attack. During a press conference, Saurabh Bhardwaj said, "If you have the guts, donate your earnings to the families of the victims of the Pahalgam attack." After winning the tournament, Suryakumar Yadav did just that. Now, Saurabh Bhardwaj has challenged the central government, saying he will donate the entire tournament proceeds. What did Saurabh Bhardwaj say earlier? Saurabh Bhardwaj said during the press conference, "If you have the guts, what's his name? Surya Kumar Yadav, if you have the guts, if you have the guts, if you have the guts of the BCCI, and if you have the guts of the ICC, then I give you another challenge: donate all the money you've earned from broadcasting rights, advertising, and the cricket business to the widows of those martyrs. We'll also accept that you've dedicated it." They don't have the courage, they don't have the guts. They can do this. They can say anything in a fake way, they dedicate it to this person, to that person. It's a matter of great shame." What did Surya write in his post? Surya Kumar Yadav announced in his post that he would donate his earnings from the Asia Cup. He didn't mention Saurabh Bhardwaj by name, but his decision was like a slap in the face to Saurabh. He wrote, "I have decided to donate my match fee from this tournament to help our armed forces and the families of the victims of the Pahalgam terrorist attack. You will always be in my thoughts. Jai Hind."
