Short, around off, Smriti Mandhana punches it to cover for one. With that, India's 100 comes up.
Shafali Verma falls, and with that, it is time for a DRINKS BREAK. Sri Lanka needed that breakthrough, and this break gives Chamari Athapaththu a chance to regroup her side. The island nation will look to build on this wicket and bring about some control to the proceedings. With Shafali back in the hut, Smriti Mandhana will know she needs to stay out there, especially given how out of touch India's middle order has looked recently. Harmanpreet Kaur joins Mandhana out in the middle. Chamari Athapaththu is back into the attack.

She loses her balance and overbalances outside the crease. The keeper whips the bails off in a flash, but Shafali just manages to slide that back foot inside the line in the nick of time.

SIX! High and long enough. Short of a length, on middle and leg. Smriti Mandhana skips down the track, and even though she does not get to the pitch of the ball, she swings through the line. It is skied downtown. Sugandika Kumari is in with a chance and, at best, she can push the ball away and save a six. However, rather than running along the fence from long on, she runs in before moving sideways, leaving herself with no chance of making an effort. Chamari Athapaththu is not pleased one bit. 19 runs off the over.

Huge appeal for LBW, but that dies down quickly. Short, pitching on middle and turning back to the right-hander. Shafali Verma misses her clip and wears on the pad.
Chamari Athapaththu brings herself into the attack.

FOUR! Not entirely from the middle of the bat, but it will work for Verma. Pitches it fuller, does Ayodhya, just outside off. Shafali Verma looks to punch it from her front foot toward cover, but gets the connection from the outer half of the bat, and it goes through the gap between backward point and short third for four runs.
Sugandika Kumari has conceded 22 runs from her two overs. Mithali Ayodhya will continue.

SIX! All the way! Kumari drops it short, outside off. Mandhana uses the depth of the crease and flat bats it down the ground. She does not quite get hold of it and gets it more off the lower half of the blade, but clears the fence comfortably.

Very full and it tails back in towards the right boot of the left-hander. Smriti's head falls over to the off side as she works it to mid on. A tidy first over by Mithali Ayodhya.

Good effort in the field. Ayodhya goes wide on the crease on the around-the-wicket angle and pushes the length up, on off. Mandhana knocks it towards cover, where Harshitha Samarawickrama gets low to her left to make a sharp stop.

Not much movement through the air as this just slides onto the pads, on a good length. Verma tucks it to mid-wicket.
Mithali Ayodhya, who boasts a slingy action, will steam in from the other end.

Verma and India are away. Darted in from around the wicket, flat and short, on off. Shafali presses back and punches it to long on for a single.
We are all set for the gold-medal match to commence. Blue skies greet the two umpires and players as they make their way out to the middle. Shafali Verma and Smriti Mandhana walk out to open the innings for India. Sri Lanka are starting with spin in the form of Sugandika Kumari. Verma to face the first ball. Let's go...
It is time for the national anthems. Harmanpreet Kaur and Chamari Athapaththu lead their respective sides out, along with the mascots. It will be India's national anthem first, followed by that of Sri Lanka.
In conversation with India's star opener - Shafali Verma starts by sharing her experience in Japan, saying the team is thoroughly enjoying their time here in Japan and the local cuisine. She adds that the wickets have been good to bat on as well. Asked if she keeps an eye on her numbers, Shafali says the numbers do give you confidence, but her focus is on doing well for the team and helping them win. On playing Sri Lanka not too long ago, Shafali says that experience does help in understanding the strengths and weaknesses of the opposition. However, she adds that the same applies to Sri Lanka, who will also know what to expect from India.
India Women (Unchanged XI) - Shafali Verma, Smriti Mandhana, G Kamalini, Harmanpreet Kaur (C), Richa Ghosh (WK), Bharti Fulmali, Deepti Sharma, Kranti Gaud, Shreyanka Patil, Sree Charani, and Nandani Sharma.
Sri Lanka Women (Unchanged XI) - Imesha Dulani, Chamari Athapaththu (C), Hasini Perera, Harshitha Samarawickrama, Kavisha Dilhari, Hansima Karunaratne, Kaushini Nuthyangana (WK), Mithali Ayodhya, Kawya Kavindi, Sugandika Kumari, and Chamudi Praboda.
TOSS - The flip of the coin has landed in favour of Harmanpreet Kaur. India have elected to BAT first.
Where the game will be won - Sri Lanka's bowlers need to dismiss India's openers early. If they do, the pressure shifts to an Indian middle order that hasn't been tested recently, and that is where the defending champions could wobble. India's bowlers have a similar brief. Remove Chamari Athapaththu, Harshitha Samarawickrama and Hasini Perera, and things should stay firmly under control. The stadium is slowly filling up, and the atmosphere is turning electric! So, who are you backing in this final? Stick around for the toss and all the updates...
The race for the top - Who will finish as the leading run-scorer of the 2026 Asian Games - Shafali Verma or Chamari Athapaththu? Chamari leads by just six runs, so expect a personal duel within the bigger battle. The bowling charts are dominated by India, with Sree Charani on six wickets, Deepti Sharma on four and Nandani Sharma on three. But guess who sits fourth? It's Chamari yet again. That tells you everything about the impact this 36-year-old has on her team.
The stage is set - Ladies and gentlemen, are you ready for this? Nisshin has set the stage for the grand finale, where the Asian Games 2026 reaches its cricketing crescendo in the women's discipline. The gold medal match has thrown up the fixture everyone in women's Asian cricket wanted. It's India versus Sri Lanka, again, just 9 days after the Asia Cup final. So fasten your seatbelts, because this promises to be a cracker of a contest.
... MATCH DAY ...
Gold on the line in Nisshin - The stage is set for an electric Asian showdown in Japan. Defending champions India Women face fierce rivals Sri Lanka Women in the Asian Games gold-medal clash at the Aichi Prefectural Korogi Sports Park in Nisshin. Both sides enter the title match after pulling off emphatic semifinal victories that sent shockwaves through the competition. India arrive carrying the prestige of their 2023 title defence, while Sri Lanka enter with tremendous self-belief, determined to topple the giants and script history. Rematch with scores to settle - This encounter carries plenty of emotional baggage. The two subcontinental rivals contested the final in the previous Asian Games, where India took home the ultimate prize. Only days ago, they squared off in the final of the Asia Cup, where India again proved too strong and walked away with a dominant victory. Sri Lanka have absorbed heavy blows in recent title clashes, but knockout cricket offers a fresh slate. Taking down the reigning champions to claim a continental gold medal is the ultimate motivation for the island nation. The Shafali storm and bowling bite - India are playing a fearless brand of cricket. Opener Shafali Verma lit up the tournament with a blistering 49-ball hundred in the semifinal against Bangladesh, matching the national record with nine sixes in an unforgettable assault. Alongside her, Smriti Mandhana has provided rapid starts, while captain Harmanpreet Kaur continues to control the middle overs with composure. India's bowling has been equally relentless. The spin trio of Deepti Sharma, Sree Charani, and young Nandani Sharma have suffocated opposition lineups, picking up wickets in clusters and leaving little room for error. The Athapaththu factor and Lankan spirit - Sri Lanka's charge to the final has been spearheaded by their talismanic leader, Chamari Athapaththu. Facing a stiff target of 178 against Pakistan in the semifinal, Athapaththu produced a masterclass, smashing an unbeaten 83 off 50 balls to guide her team home with overs to spare. Supported by a spirited top order including Hasini Perera and Imesha Dulani, Sri Lanka have proven their batting can chase down any score. If their bowling attack, spearheaded by Sugandika Kumari and Kavisha Dilhari, can keep India's power-hitters in check during the Powerplay, Sri Lanka will fancy their chances of an upset. Team form (Last 5 completed T20Is, recent first). IND-W - WWWWW | SL-W - WWLWW. What to expect at Korogi Sports Park? The surface in Nisshin has offered good bounce and allowed batters to hit through the line, while fast outfields and reachable boundary sizes make big scores a common feature. India walk in as favourites given their depth and recent head-to-head superiority, but Sri Lanka are playing with unmatched freedom and confidence. With the Asian Games gold waiting at the finish line, expect a high-intensity battle from the very first delivery.
