The women's teams of India and Pakistan will once again play against each other. In the framework of the Women's Asian Cup 2026, the final group match between these neighboring countries will take place on Saturday, September 5th.
Although the Indian team has already secured its spot in the semi-finals, its goal in the match against Pakistan is to finish the league stage with a victory.
The Asian Cup 2026 tournament started in Dubai, featuring eight teams, and all are vying for the T20 champion title. The tournament will last until September 13th, with a total of 15 matches to be played, including the group stage, semi-finals, and final.
India was placed in Group A, which also included teams from Thailand, Hong Kong, and China, besides Pakistan. Therefore, India's last match in the group round will be against Pakistan.
In their previous encounter, the Indian team achieved a large victory over Hong Kong with a score of 137 runs. The main star of this victory was Smriti Mandhana, who delivered a crushing blow by scoring 124 runs in just 64 balls.
Mandhana's performance not only brought a major victory to India but also marked a historic achievement: she became the top run-scorer in the history of women's international cricket. She surpassed former Indian captain Mithali Raj, who had registered 10,868 international runs.
The final group match between India and Pakistan in the 2026 Asian Cup is scheduled for Saturday, September 5, 2026. The match will start at 20:00 Indian time. Both teams will meet at the International Stadium in Dubai.
