Fake trophy awarded to Indian Captain


It has been reported that ICC has handed over a fake trophy to the Indian skipper. Why is this so? Why ICC has given a fake trophy? The ICC president Sharad Powar handed over the fake trophy to Mahindra Singh Dhooni only because to avoid tax of Rs 2.2 million.
The Indian media further reported that the original trophy is in the custody of the Mumbai customs and it would be sent back to Dubai today. The fake trophy awarded to the Indian team was having no ICC logo nor the name of the Champion. This all story has been reported by Indian Media. How long it is true and valid? It is still to decide.
