India vs Bangladesh Women’s Semi-Final: Date, Time, Live TV

Defending champions India will face Bangladesh in the women's cricket semi-final at the Asian Games 2026 on Sunday, with a place in the gold-medal match at stake.

The India vs Bangladesh semi-final will be played at Korogi Sports Park and will begin at 10:30 AM IST.

India vs Bangladesh: Asian Games semi-final

India booked their place in the last four after an eight-wicket win over hosts Japan in the quarter-final. Shree Charani and Shafali Verma played key roles in India's comfortable victory.

Bangladesh, meanwhile, advanced to the semi-finals after their quarter-final against China was washed out. As the higher-ranked team according to the ICC rankings, Bangladesh progressed to the last four.

The semi-final also mirrors the corresponding fixture from the 2023 Asian Games in Hangzhou, where India defeated Bangladesh by eight wickets before going on to win the gold medal.

India have also dominated their recent T20I meetings with Bangladesh, winning their last nine encounters. The streak dates back to their semi-final meeting at Hangzhou 2023.

Overall, India have won 22 of the 25 T20I meetings between the two teams. Bangladesh's most recent win came in 2023.

The teams also met in the Asia Cup semi-final earlier in September, with Harmanpreet Kaur's side winning by 40 runs.

Smriti Mandhana closing in on T20I record

Smriti Mandhana will have another record in sight when India take on Bangladesh.

The India opener needs nine runs to surpass New Zealand's Suzie Bates as the leading run-scorer in women's T20I cricket.

A strong performance from Mandhana would therefore add another milestone to what could be a crucial semi-final for the defending champions.
