The height of Burj Khalifa is 830 meters, after converting it into millimeters, the height of the trophy was kept at 830 millimeters. The 7-pointed crown on it represents the unity of the 7 states of the UAE. While the weight of 12.2 kg is a symbol of UAE's pride, as the UAE's National Day is celebrated on 2 December (2nd day of the 12th month). This year's Trophy Tour also started on this day.
