2026 Asian Games women's cricket tournament

Overview

The 2026 Asian Games women’s cricket semi-finals have determined the competitors for the gold medal match.

Sri Lanka advanced to the final after defeating Pakistan by eight wickets. Despite half-centuries from Pakistan’s Ayesha Zafar (71) and Shawal Zulfiqar (54), which helped Pakistan post 177 runs, Sri Lanka successfully chased the target. The victory was led by captain Chamari Athapaththu, who remained unbeaten on 83 runs. Pakistan will now compete for the bronze medal against the loser of the second semi-final.

In the second semi-final, India secured their place in the final with a 114-run victory over Bangladesh. India reached a total of 195/4, bolstered by an unbeaten century from Shafali Verma, who scored 100 runs off 49 balls. Bangladesh was subsequently bowled out for 81. This win marks India’s fourth medal in the games to date.

The gold medal match, scheduled for Tuesday, will feature a rematch of the previous edition’s final between India and Sri Lanka.
