The ACC Women’s Premier Cup 2026, a 16‑team, four‑group qualifying showcase running from 3–13 June in Malaysia, returns with an added edge: the top four semi-finalist teams will secure the final spots at the 2026 Women’s T20 Asia Cup.
Defending champions the United Arab Emirates, who lifted the inaugural trophy in Malaysia in 2024, headline a diverse field that includes Bahrain, Mongolia, Myanmar, Thailand, China, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Kuwait, Malaysia, Singapore, Bhutan, Hong Kong, Nepal, and Qatar.
The United Arab Emirates, Thailand, Malaysia, and Nepal were the only sides to remain unbeaten throughout the league stages in the previous edition of the tournament in 2024.
For broadcasters, streamers and fans planning their viewing schedules, this tournament doubles as both high-stakes qualification drama and a calendar of rapid, emerging talent from across Asia, meaning every match matters.
Malaysia returns as the host nation for the 2nd edition of the tournament. With 16 teams compressed into an 11-day window, scheduling is tight.
