Why Is Gautam Gambhir Not India's Head Coach for IND vs SL Asian Games 2026 Semifinal?
The winner advances to the gold medal match against Pakistan following six consecutive weather-related cancellations, tournament organizers reported.
- On Thursday, India faced Sri Lanka in the Asian Games men's cricket semifinal at Korogi Sports Park in Nisshin, with Sri Lanka winning the toss and opting to bowl first.
- Persistent rain previously washed out six matches, including all four quarterfinals, forcing top-ranked teams directly into the semifinals and prompting organizers to rule that finalists will share the gold medal if weather disrupts the final.
- Shreyas Iyer leads India's full-strength T20I squad, entering as overwhelming favorites to defend their gold, while Sri Lanka's second-string side under Sahan Arachchige remains capable of springing a surprise with early swing and spin.
- Pakistan already secured the gold medal match after defeating Bangladesh, meaning the winner of this semifinal advances to face them for the 2026 Asian Games title on October 3.
- Fans can view live coverage on the Sony Sports Network, including channels like Sony Sports Ten 1 and Sony Sports Ten 5, or stream digitally through the SonyLIV app and website.
