The 2nd Semi-Final of the Asian Games Women’s Cricket Competition 2026 is set to feature Bangladesh Women against India Women at Nisshin, Japan on September 20, 2026 (Sunday). The game will begin at 10:30 AM IST, with a place in the final on offer for the team that comes out on top. Bangladesh entered the semi-final after their quarter-final against China Women was abandoned without a ball being bowled. India, meanwhile, made their way into the last four after a dominant 8-wicket victory over Japan Women in their quarter-final.

India had very little trouble in their previous match, as they first restricted Japan to 57 runs and then reached 59/2 in only five overs while chasing the target. Bangladesh did not get the chance to take the field in their quarter-final because of the abandoned game, leaving their previous completed outing before this stage. The semi-final will therefore bring both teams into a high-pressure knockout contest with a final spot at stake. Bangladesh will look to make the most of their opportunity, while India will aim to carry the momentum from their comfortable quarter-final result into this game.
