India vs Japan Women's Asian Games quarter-final result and highlights as Shafali Verma powers IND to an 8-wicket win

In Japan, starting from September 19, India's top team sports teams, including cricket, hockey, and kabaddi, are aiming to win gold medals at the 2026 Asian Games. Key players such as Harmanpreet Singh, Shreyas Iyer, and Sunil Kumar will lead their respective teams in their efforts. India's cricket teams, both men's and women's, will be defending their gold medals from the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou.

The men's team has a strong lineup, including Shreyas Iyer, who has won the IPL title and the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. The women's team, led by captain Harmanpreet Kaur, will aim to achieve a historic double, similar to their previous success in Hangzhou. Hockey fans can look forward to India's eight-time Olympic gold medal-winning team, which has won four Asian Games gold medals.

A gold medal in the 2026 Asian Games would be a significant boost for their confidence heading into the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028.
