The Asian Games will be held in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan, from September 19 to October 4. India's final Asia Cup team consists of Harmanpreet Kaur, Smriti Mandhana, Shafali Verma, Bharti Fulmali, Deepti Sharma, Richa Ghosh, G. Kamalini, Arundhati Reddy, Prema Rawat, Radha Yadav, Sree Charani, Renuka Thakur, Nandni Sharma, Kranti Gaud, and Pratika Rawal.
