India Women and Sri Lanka Women are set to face each other in the final of the Women’s Asian Games 2026 at Korogi Sports Park in Nisshin. The winner of the contest will take home the gold medal, while the match will also be a rematch of the 2023 Hangzhou Asian Games final, where India registered a 19-run victory.
India have been in excellent form throughout the tournament. They defeated Japan by eight wickets in the quarterfinal before producing a commanding 114-run victory over Bangladesh in the semifinal. Harmanpreet Kaur’s side will also take confidence from their recent Women’s Asia Cup final victory over Sri Lanka on September 13.
Sri Lanka have also impressed on their route to the final, beating Malaysia by 86 runs in the quarterfinal before defeating Pakistan by eight wickets in the semifinal. Chamari Athapaththu will lead a side that will be determined to put up a stronger challenge against India in the gold-medal match. If the final is washed out, India will be awarded the gold medal as the higher-seeded team.

Korogi Sports Park Pitch Report
The pitch at Korogi Sports Park is expected to provide a fairly balanced contest between batters and bowlers. The surface can offer assistance to both pace and spin, while batters may need to spend some time at the crease before playing their shots with greater freedom.
Seamers could find some help early on, while spinners and bowlers who vary their pace may become increasingly important as the innings progresses. Batters who adapt quickly to the conditions and avoid taking unnecessary risks could have a better chance of building substantial scores.
