Where to Watch Quarterfinal 4 – Japan Women vs India Women? Live Streaming Details

Defending champions India kick off their Asian Games 2026 campaign under Harmanpreet Kaur, boasting a powerhouse lineup that features Smriti Mandhana, Deepti Sharma, and Richa Ghosh. They arrive with clear gold-medal ambitions and an aggressive, settled approach across all departments. Japan enter the match as major underdogs, taking on one of the form teams in world cricket. It is a massive exposure opportunity for the Japanese squad, who will be eager to test their skills and execution against top-tier international opposition.

India will look to use this opening fixture to adapt quickly to pitch conditions, relying on their explosive opening pair of Mandhana and Shafali Verma to set a high bar early. For Japan, the focus will be on maintaining tight line and length, avoiding extras, and trying to build brief periods of control. Given the sheer gap in power-hitting and spin quality, India are expected to dictate terms from start to finish and comfortable book their spot in the semi-finals.
